From Mr. Wilburn's Desk
SASEAS families,

Wow, what an incredible Friday we enjoyed last week! I am so thankful to everyone who jumped in to help make the day a great celebration and success. We have an incredible team of teachers, staff, and parents who always come together to support our awesome school...our National Blue Ribbon School!

This year's Run4Fun was also a huge success. Thank you to Angela Foulks and the team of volunteers. We surpassed our $25,000 goal, and it was wonderful to involve our preschool students and families in the effort for the first time. Again, thank you. I am humbled by your generosity.

Students will be able to enjoy their Run4Fun out-of-uniform week all next week, October 22-26. We will encourage students to "dress up" a bit on Mass day. Unfortunately, I will be wearing a gorilla costume all day sometime in the near future!

Our athletic teams in cheer, golf, cross country, volleyball, and football have represented us very well this fall season. Thank you to the positive, dedicated coaches who make it happen! Good luck in your end-of-season tournaments and events.

In Christ's peace and love,
Mark Wilburn, Principal

Preschool News

The preschool teachers are looking forward to meeting with parents during our fall conferences this Thursday and Friday. Please remember that the preschool children will not have class this Thursday and Friday while their teachers are conferencing.

St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Preschool had a wonderful time participating in their first Run4Fun. We would like to thank our preschool parents for their generous donations to this major fundraiser. All preschool classes met their fundraising goals, so more fun will follow as the children get their class rewards!

Our three's are learning about pumpkins this week. They are making jack-o'-lanterns in art and learning the growth sequence of the pumpkin from seed to vine to a full grown pumpkin in science. In religion class, they are learning that “I Can Care” as they explore ways that they can care for the things God has created.

Our four's and PreK are learning all about leaves this week. The four's are working on a “Colors of Fall” booklet that gives them some beginning reading practice as they practice tracing their color names and reading “I see” sentences. In religion they are learning to be grateful for all of the things that God has made.

The PreK class is practicing fine motor skills as they tear brightly colored paper and make leaves. In religion they are learning the very important lesson that “Talking to God is good”, and that we talk to God in prayer.
