From the Desk of Ellen Knippel, Principal
Dear Parents,
It’s hard to believe we are half way through March already!!
Report Cards came home on Friday along with conference slips. If you did not receive it, please ask your child. You child’s teacher will be sending home information as to the online format of conferences. Conferences will take place this week Tuesday, March 15th, or next week Thursday, March 24th.
We have just about finished taking IOWA Tests in Grades 3, 5, and 7. Thanks for planning appointments around testing times. We will have finished make-ups by the end of the week.
Vacation Reminder: If you are planning on a vacation, please fill out the vacation form 2 weeks prior to leaving. Teachers are not required to give student work ahead of vacation times. Students have one day per absent day in which to make up classwork. It is the responsibility of the parent to be sure work is getting completed.
Finally, a huge thank you to Melanie Sobotka for the many years she has edited our weekly newsletter. She is stepping down from this position next school year and we are presently looking for a replacement. Please see the information below. Melanie will gladly train her replacement.
Blessings!
Mrs. Ellen Knippel

Welcome to our new section of the newsletter - Volunteer Spotlight of the Week!
Live, Seek, Commit, Serve describes this sunbeam perfectly. Julie Goyette is always willing to help out during the school day in any capacity that is needed and always has a smile on her face that is a mile wide. She attends daily mass while also helping administer communion and making sure the votive candles in the back are clean and cared for. We could not possibly name all of the ways that she makes St. Anthony on the Lake a better place, but we can easily say she does so just by being a part of our community. Thank you for all that you do Julie!!
