March 23 Note

  • March 23rd Note


    Calendar Notes
  • If your child is interested in the Pine Car Derby, please return registration forms by March 27th.
  • Good Friday is April 10th. Students will be singing in the 2:00 pm service.
  • Easter Vacation is April 13th-17th.
  • Students will see Disney’s new movie, “Earth” on April 23rd.
  • Career Day is Friday, April 24th.



    Classroom Notes
  • The spelling list is Unit 26 for Monday of next week. The hymn for next Friday is the song grades 6-8 sings in the Good Friday service, “What Grace Is This?”
  • Don’t forget about Career Day! Please be continuing to look for exciting opportunities for your child on that day.
  • Last Friday we began to go over options for the various graduation items. Students will continue to look at the different selections for each item. In the past, grades 1-7 sing one song and 8th grade sings a different song in the service. This year grades 1-8 will sing the class song together, instead of two separate songs.
  • A note went home on Friday with the logistics for the CLHS trip. Please meet at Apostles no later than 7:45 on Wednesday morning. On Saturday, we will return to Apostles about 4 pm. Students will call as we get close to campus.
    Students need to bring a sleeping bag.
    Students will need to bring money for meals and any souvenirs.
    Students may bring a pillow, swim suit, iPod, snacks.
    We are looking forward to a very fun and memorable trip.
  • Students in Economics are getting familiar with the “Stock Market Game.” We began as the only class involved for the first few days, but now there are currently a total of 39 students participating in our area. The game runs until May 22nd.
  • From now until the end of the year, we will have some different games in our classroom, almost like intramurals. On Friday we began a paper football tournament in our room. There will be 15 minutes set aside on Fridays for games, but the majority of games will be played during lunch after everyone has finished eating. This is purely for fun and I hope that it is just that.


    God’s blessings on your week,
    Mr. Fillner
