Hello St. Al Families,
I hope everyone had a wonderful week. Since we do not have school on Monday, I am sending out my typical Monday email a bit early. The following includes items that are a mix of group specific announcements/events and general info for everyone.
Announcements
Middle School Study Hall: middle school students now have the option of staying inside during lunch recess for study hall. It is a silent, independent, and voluntary option for those who want to work on homework or classwork. Extra teacher support is not offered during this time, so homework center is still recommended for those who may need teacher assistance with their work. Thank you to Mrs. Foisy for hosting this in her math room.
Eighth Grade High School Applications: It is about that time. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you need me to fill out an administrator recommendation form or you need a letter from the principal. I am happy to work with all 8th grade families however I can with this process.
Auction Volunteer Hours: Remember to get your auction volunteer hours in. Opportunities for hours begin this week on Wednesday evening. Additional opportunities include Thursday afternoon, all day Friday, and more. Contact Lena Anderson for more information. Thank you to everyone who has already signed up to volunteer. It takes a village to put on an event like this. Our entire community benefits greatly from everyone’s hard work and we are so thankful for the efforts of everyone involved.
