Principal Notes

Dear Families,

This weekend our 2nd graders will be making their First Holy Communion. Remember when you received your First Holy Communion - the excitement, the awe and the reverence that you felt? Jesus loves all of us so much. Please keep our 2nd graders and their families in your prayers as they grow closer to Jesus on their faith journey.

Just a reminder, grades K5-8th grade will start MAPS testing on Monday.


Faithfully,
Mrs. Mary Tretow

My SMV Family

Around SMV this Week
Our K3 students learn about birds and their nests and they even painted with a feather.
People in our family..... Ed, Kelly and Jeralyn (4th grade) Krause

Our family LOVES to travel. We have been to over 20 National Parks in the last 5 years. Our traveling has slowed down during Covid. We have a new appreciation for game night, movie night, jigsaw puzzles and cooking meals together as a family. We have also discovered State Parks for hiking and being outdoors.

Our family has two cats, Mr. Peppers (7 years old) and Kuddles (1 1/2 years old). Kuddles is a naughty kitty!! He likes to eat jigsaw puzzle pieces.

Places our family has lived... Our roots are in the Brookfield/Elm Grove area. 

Our family loves being a part of SMV because of its sense of community. Our first contact with SMV was for a K3 open house. Mrs. Sinense was so welcoming and kind. We instantly felt like we belonged. SMV's values of kindness, service and education are very important to our family.
