Dear SASEAS school families,

On this day, Patriot Day, the 18 th anniversary of the attacks at the World Trade Center and the Pentagon on September 11, we take a moment of silence to pray for the 2,977 people who lost their lives. For those of us who lived through it, we will never forget. 

It has been a pleasure to be in our classrooms these first couple of weeks of school to see how our awesome teachers and students have jumped right into learning. Everywhere I go students are working hard on new and interesting material. But, our students are not the only ones who are learning new and exciting material. This year our teachers are continuing their professional development with The 9 Essential Skills of the Love and Logic Classroom.  Use of these skills in the classroom will allow our teachers to have more energy, more time to deliver quality instruction, and will ensure a calm, respectful classroom environment. This, in turn, will raise test scores, increase positivity in the classroom, and improve students’ self-esteem and problem-solving skills. This training is based on the book: Teaching with Love & Logic: Taking Control of the Classroom by David Funk and Jim Fay. Check it out and see what our teachers are learning. These skills are also very useful for parents in dealing with their children at home.

One of our biggest fundraisers, the Run4Fun , kicks off this Friday. Be on the lookout for the information packet coming home regarding donations from family and friends. We do have an online donation option as well; check it out on our website here . We have some great incentives for our top three individual student earners and our top three homerooms. We also have some excellent all school incentives, the big one being A DAY OFF school if we reach our final goal. Our goal is $25,000 to support increased investments in our teachers, technology, tuition support, and campus improvements. Might your family or company/business be willing to be a sponsor this year?

Fall picture day is tomorrow. Remember that our students are IN UNIFORM for these photos. I also look forward to seeing everyone at our Seton Campus Meet the Teacher Night. Remember that the wine and cheese social begins at 6 pm and the program begins at 6:30 in the cafeteria.

Our first early dismissal of the year is this Friday. Remember that we have our early dismissals so that our faculty and staff can continue their Faith Development through the School of Faith program.
Have a great week.
