This is late because I went to Bakersfield with the Decathlon Team. I am happy to report that the Our Lady of Mercy team placed first in the competition. That means they will go to state in May. We were all so excited for the students. They and their coaches have been working hard on this.
Wednesday is Ash Wednesday and the beginning of Lent. We have been talking about Lent. Lent is a time to grow and change. It is also a time to do something extra for someone else. Please talk about this at home. The first grade is responsible for the mass on Wednesday. Your child will be either reading, singing, or bringing up the gifts. I hope you can attend as it is a great way to begin the season of Lent.
This week is the end of the 3rd quarter. Thank you for making sure all of the reading envelopes were returned. Hopefully you asked some of the questions that are on the back of the envelope. Curriculum remains the same.
