GIFTS ARE DUE!
 

Thank you for your generosity; there are no more tags left on the tree!
 
You may write out one check for multiple meal tags.

We welcome a few volunteers to help deliver gifts on Wednesday, December 18th.  Please contact  Roban Kubic if you and your child might be interested in loading the bus and taking the bus ride to  Our Lady of Fatima Mission.

Please continue to pray for our 14 adopted families. 

We will also deliver a Christmas tree to the Missionaries of Charity sisters.


Student Council is sponsoring an Ornament Collection to decorate the tree that we deliver to the Our Lady of Fatima Mission. 


SCHOOL ACCREDITATION UPDATE
 
All of our students had the opportunity to complete an online survey geared especially toward collecting data on how they perceive and experience our school. This data is a necessary piece toward evaluating the effectiveness of the school in meeting student needs and improving student learning. We especially look forward to hearing from this group of important shareholders, the children we are here to serve.

The timeline for our entire self study and accreditation process is now finalized. We have just 6 months to go before submitting our final report and action plan to the WCEA Elementary Commissioner for review, and about a year until the Accreditation Team visits us in 2020.
