who filled with wonder at the sight of the child on Christmas night.
Candle, candle burning bright, shining in the cold winter night.

We will be practicing safety drills over the next couple of weeks. In September you received information regarding the Standard Response Protocol. The Standard Response Protocol is based on five simple actions that can be used based on the incident it reflects. The language is simple and can easily be utilized within the school, church, and other areas in the event of an emergency. The five actions are Hold, Secure, Lockdown, Evacuate and Shelter. Please see this link for more information Standard Response Protocol Link Our plans are to begin with Evacuate/Fire Drill and Secure.
Last evening was our Christmas program and the children shined! Mrs. Muehlbauer and Mrs. Fellows, we thank you for teaching our children and helping us journey through Advent and into the Christmas season with JOY! We are blessed indeed! If anyone recorded the concert, would you please reach out to Ms. Muehlbauer, lmuehlbauer@stjerome.org? The recording in the church did not work. Thank you!
Peace and continued Advent blessings to each of our students and families,
