God’s Children of the World...Light the Way
Our school theme is the backbone of our school year. As we implement some of
our new programs this year — peaceful playground, peer mediation, positive
coaching alliance and second step program — we continue to focus on various
areas each month as our school students light the way for all of us. Last
month we focused on caring and sharing. This month we are focusing on
sportsmanship. I found this wonderful article on sportsmanship in the Today’s
Catholic Teacher magazine that I am sharing with you. It is geared towards
high school, however has some excellent points that can apply to elementary
school for parents, students, teachers, coaches and spectators. Please see the
attached. I continue to look ahead to another successful year for all of our
students.
School Pictures
School pictures go home today. If your child is eligible for a retake or was
absent when pictures were taken in September, please notify the school office.
We want to be sure to accommodate those in need on Nov. 2nd (scheduled retake
day).
Halloween
Don’t forget to dress up for Halloween. Please follow the guidelines that were
sent home last week. Happy Halloween to all!
Parent Conferences
Scheduled conference times will be sent home in next week’s Wednesday
envelope. We did our best to accommodate your first or second choice. Please
do not ask to switch times unless it is an emergency. If you absolutely must
switch your time, please contact the school office not the teacher.
Recycling
St. Cletus School is sponsoring a paper recycling program. I am sure you
noticed the yellow and green bins located at the Southeast end of the parking
lot. St. Cletus School receives money for the recycled paper. Feel free to
drop off your paper recycling to the St. Cletus bins.
See your October calendar for further information.
