Sr. Diane's Weekly Words

“Give thanks to the Lord; for His great Love is everlasting”

As we approach Thanksgiving, are we taking the time to pause and remember the many gifts that God has given us? Are we taking the time to thank those people in our lives who keep us grounded? Who remind us that we are loved?

Each day I spend a few minutes just listing the gifts of the day. Doing this reminds me that despite the challenges I face, there is much to be grateful for.

ACTION:

This week I challenge and encourage you to spend time talking with your kids about the gift of GRATITUDE.

Our students enjoying one of our many enrichment programs, Lego Club!🧩

REMINDER!

It has gotten colder outside and flu season is upon us.

Please be sure that your child is dressed appropriately for the weather and for outdoor recess. Also, PLEASE take the time to put your child's name inside their

sweaters, jackets, and coats for when they get lost.
