Parents,
Mark your calendar, on November 13, 2007, Father Pat will be talking to the parents of children who will be receiving their First Penance. We will meet at St. Patrick's Church at 7:00 p.m. Father Pat always does a wonderful job making parents and teachers feel very special.
We will start working on our songs for the Thanksgiving program which is on November 14,2007. Children should be at St. Patricks's Hall by 6:15 p.m. The show starts at 6:30p.m. It always turns out to be a good evening. Where else can you be entertained and get a good meal for a reasonable price.
Your child will be participating in the Operation Christmas Child. Operation Christmas Child is a program where our class will be filling up a shoe box with small toys, hygiene items, school supplies, and hard candy to be shipped to a child whether in the slums of Calcutta or orphans in Johannesburg. I would like to fill a shoe box for one girl and one boy in the age range of 5-9. I will send a letter home with some gift ideas.
As always if there are ever any questions or concerns regarding second grade please feel free to come by and see me.
