General
Another month is gone already. I and the 5th grade class are doing chapel this Wed. you are welcome to come and worship with us at at 8:20 am on Wed. This week is also the Book Fair. We previewed books today and we are going to buy on Thurs. You can also purchase books for your child before that if you wish. They are here after school. There are also some adult books that you may be interested in. Friday night is the faculty vs 7th and 8th grade boys and girls basketball teams. It should be an exciting evening. I have decided since I am officially a senior citizen and out of shape that I won't be playing in the game. I will lend moral support but not physical support. Next week is Lutheran Schools Week. There are dress down days each day and Special Persons Day on Friday. For Special Persons Day the person they bring needs to be out of high school unless you send in permission that they can miss their classes at their school. If you of the parent approve the absence from school then it is ok with me, but send or email me a note so I know.
Work
Friday's memory is Heb. 4:16 on page 71. There will be a spelling test on Friday and some type of project. My math class will be having a test on Thurs. and I think Mr. Anders' class has a test either tomorrow or Wed. The solar system project is due next Monday. The missing work from the midterms needs to be turned in by Wed. If it isn't done by then, those assignments will become F's. March's Monthly Memory is the 5th, 6th, 7th and the Doxology (Conclusion). The March book report topic is a mystery book.
Sports
The last home basketball game is tomorrow so after school study time will end at 4:00 pm.

That is all for this week.

Happy Valentine's Day. I hope you have a day and the rest of the year filled with love - Love from others and know you always have God's love with you. Thank you to those of you who shared valentine's with me. The taste buds will like it, but my waist may have a problem with it. I guess that means I'll just have to work it off. Today was our last STARBASE day. The kids have many things they have received from STARBASE that was sent home today.
Check and review the things, you will be able to see the different activities we did. The booklet should show you their recorded data. Thank you to all of you who drove or stayed as a chaperon. Parent - teacher consultation slips will sent home tomorrow if a conference was requested. Please contact me if the time does not work. I used every one's first choice time frame. Thurs. and Fri. are half days and no school next Mon., Tues., and Wed. Winter break - now that it is warming up. It is also Presidents Day on Mon. Midterms are being prepared for Wed. If you want a paper copy please email me or send a note with your child. Otherwise they are posted on Fast direct. You can also respond by email that you reviewed the midterm.
Work
Memory for Friday is Rom 3:23 & 24 on page 69, stop at Jesus. There will be no Friday memory next week with only 2 days.
