A MESSAGE FROM MRS. HYLAND

Dear Berkeley Hills families,
It’s hard to believe that we will mark
the 100th Day of school on Thursday, February 6
!
We will celebrate the day by
wearing 100 items
and with exciting
100th day activities
. Every 100 minutes, we will draw the names of
six students who will receive a fun 100th Day surprise
.
It is also a great day for us to
count the hundreds of blessings and opportunities we have to learn and grow
at Eden.
Blessings,
Mrs. Hyland
Berkeley Hills Principal

Lessons from the Story of Joseph
Students listened intently as
guest speaker Ryan Lancia,
Director of Youth Ministry at Fox Chapel Presbyterian Church, helped them understand more about
how God works things for our good
. Ryan connected truths in
the story of Joseph in Genesis 45
as students played a game of statue charades where they moved a peer into a pose that was the mystery word.
You care about what goes into your child's mind and heart. We do too.

Elementary Musical
February 25
at 7:00 pm
Wexford Campus in the South Venue
A Not So Terrible Parable
Performed by Berkeley Hills and Wexford students
It was a dark and stormy night . . .
a man lay injured by the side of the road. Two travelers passed him by. Mysteriously, he is delivered to the doorstep of the quaint Mountain Vista Inn, where the startled guests, the butler and the maid (of course!), and a famous detective must use their wits to sleuth out every clue to get to the bottom of this mystifying whodunit.
Please join us for mystery, candlelight, organ music, strange pizza toppings, and our host, Alistair McAlister,
in this Master’s Peace Theater re-creation of the
parable that Jesus told about the Good Samaritan.
Important Notes:
- Dress rehearsal is Feb. 24, 3:30-5:30 at the Wexford Campus South Venue
- Performance in the musical is mandatory for students in grades 3 and 4, and chorus students in grades 5 and 6
