I will serve joyfully, lead confidently, and inspire others through my faith in Jesus. | | Greetings From Mr. Estes... | |
Dear SASEAS Families,
I hope you are all well and continuing to grow in faith and trust in the Lord during this Lenten season. For many years my personal experience was primarily focused on what I would be “giving up” for Lent. I devoted little time and thought to what I was actually gaining through this process; honestly, there was too much focus on my sacrifice. When in fact, the true purpose of this time in our church calendar is to help us more purposefully direct our attention to Jesus’ sacrifice for us, to nurture our relationship with Him to better understand His will for our lives. I still struggle at times but I find that the Lenten season, and the rest of my year as well, is much more fruitful when I make a deliberate effort to see the impact of devoting a little extra time to things that strengthen my connection with Christ.
Congratulations once again to our students who participated in the Regional Science fair this past weekend at The University of Cincinnati. We are still waiting to see exact scores but all of the students received an EXCELLENT rating from the judges. It really is exceptional to have all six of our students score in this range in such a challenging academic competition. Thank you to all of the parents for your support, and a special thank you to Mrs. Kilbane for guiding and supporting our students through this process.
Congratulations as well to the following SASEAS wrestlers who will be competing in state tournaments this weekend. Best of luck to Anthony Cionni, JP Caito, Patrick Caito, Will Ryan, Jack Ryan, Henry Vonbusch, and Reid Vonbusch; your hard work and sacrifice is paying off. I’m sure you will represent our school community well and I look forward to hearing about your experience.
Please see the reminder section for details concerning upcoming events.
Make it a great week!

Our preschoolers are “marching” into spring, but the temperature can go up and down during these last couple of weeks in March. Please send your child with appropriate outerwear. We will try to get outside for recess as much as possible.
This week our three-year-old classes are discovering the types of weather in the spring. Mrs. Christina’s classes are learning about warm sunshine and rain showers. They will talk about stormy weather too, and practice their tornado drills.
Mrs. Sheila’s class is learning about the types of spring weather as well. They are making rainbows out of tissue paper and cotton balls. In religion they are learning about Noah’s Ark.
Our four-year-old preschool classes are learning about spring weather and rainbows. They will discover that rain and sun make rainbows and they will explore windy and cloudy days. In art they are making rainbows with streamers and in science they are making a rainbow in a jar. The religion lesson this week is about Noah’s Ark.
Our five-year-old class is learning about Lent and the Four Seasons. They will learn what a Meteorologist does and watch a weather forecast on the Smartboard. They will finish writing the sentence “Sometimes the weather can be _____.” They will also talk about what weather they can expect during each of the four seasons and how to dress for it. Their religion lesson this week is about the Good Samaritan. They are learning that Jesus teaches us to be kind and fair.
For your advanced planning, we are looking forward to meeting with parents on March 27 and 28 during our Spring Conferences. Please remember there is no school for preschoolers on these conference days.
Have a great week!

Parent Teacher Conferences
Preschool Parent Teacher Conferences will take place on Thursday, March 27th, and Friday March 28th. This is a change from the calendar that was sent out at the beginning of the school year, so please make a note of the dates. (We will have school as usual on March 20-21).
Your preschool teacher will reach out with a sign up in the next few weeks. Because we have conferences scheduled all day and into the evening on Thursday and during the school day on Friday, we will not have school for the preschool children on March 27 and 28.
Please share this information with caregivers who may not be aware that there is no school on conference days.
| | Please RSVP by April 8th. | | |
