Lots going on this week!

Tuesday:
8th grade Buddies
We will be meeting with our buddies to celebrate Christmas.  We will be making gift bags in class to give to our buddies.

Thursday:
Rehearsal
In the morning, we will go to Saint Mary's to practice for the Christmas Program.

Christmas Program
The program starts at 7:00.  Students need to arrive by 6:30 and should meet me by the steps on the left.  Please make sure to keep their coats with you.  Parents can pick up their children immediately after the performance in the lobby.  Kindergarten is not sitting in the balcony this year and will sit with their families if they are going to stay for the rest of the performance.


Friday:
Jean Day
Students may wear jeans with a Christmas shirt or uniform/Friday shirt.

Economic Mall
Every year, 8th grade puts on the Economic Mall.  They sell items that they have made and it gives the students an opportunity to buy Christmas presents for their family.  If you would like to shop with your child, please meet us in the Church basement at 9:00.  If you are not shopping with your child, please send in a few dollars so that they can shop on their own.

Happy Birthday Jesus
Instead of a Christmas party, we sing Happy Birthday to Jesus and we will celebrate this on Friday.

2:00 Dismissal
Friday is a 2:00 dismissal.  If your dismissal plans are different, please let me know!


Throughout the week:

Please send in items for the Women's Care Center.  We are collecting diapers, wipes, baby clothes, and money.
