WOW! We are in the last week of the school year. It has gone by so fast. I have really enjoyed the year and have been fortunate to have had a great deal of support from all of you. As you probably know, this is my last year here at OLM. I am retiring and will be moving on to the next phase of my life. I am happy at the thought of retirement, but there is also a great deal of sadness in my heart. OLM has been a huge part of my life for the last 25 years. I will miss it.
I will be sending home a note to let you know some of the things you can continue to work on with your child through the summer months. Please make sure your child continues to read.
THINGS TO REMEMBER:
Your child needs to bring a sack lunch on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Thursday is Field Day and the children have free dress that day. Lunch is provided.
Friday there will be Mass at 8:30. Students wear regular uniforms. No shorts.
Dismissal is at 10:00. SUMMER VACATION BEGINS
Have a good week. GOD LOVES YOU!

MAY 13-MAY 17
The days seem to be going by very quickly. On Friday, May 17, the 8th grade puts on the 8th Grade Carnival. It is from 10-12, with dismissal at 12:30. Free dress is allowed that day. The 8th grade will be around to sell tickets on Friday. I would suggest $5.00. That will be enough to play games and to get some food. If that is too much then $3.00 would be good. If your child wants to spend more I usually allow them to buy $5.00 worth of tickets and then have them keep the rest of their money and they can buy more tickets if needed. Usually they do not run out.
Please continue to sign planners and reading packets. No planners went home on Friday.
No more news. Have a great week. GOD LOVE YOU! HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!

MAY 6-MAY 10
A very busy week for the first graders is over. Grandparents Day was a huge success and the first graders did a fabulous job participating in the Mass and the May Crowning. They were also very good performing "Spoons". This is also a good time to remind your children that May is the month that we honor Mary, the Mother of Jesus. One way to honor Mary is to pray the rosary.
The talent show will be held Friday morning at 8:30 for grades K-4. It will continue at 10:30 with grades 5-8. You are welcome to attend.
Curriculum is the same with lots of first grade review going on. Your children will be taking a reading assessment on Level 5. I am waiting for a day when all are present. Continue to review vocabulary words and short and long vowel sounds.
A reminder: No spelling test was given on Friday. It will be given on Monday, May 6. No planners or work packets went home.
I know we are near the end of the year but the uniform rules still apply. Some students are wearing the Nike socks with a colored stripe up the back. They are not allowed. Shoes with colored soles are not allowed unless the soles are blue. The only uniform shorts that are allowed are the Dennis shorts. No white sweaters are allowed. The only blue sweater allowed is the Dennis uniform sweater. No nail polish is allowed. If you are unsure check the school handbook. Thank you for your help in this matter.
Many planners and reading packets are not being signed. You and your child are both responsible for this.
Thank you to all of your for your constant help and cooperation. It is greatly appreciated.
