General
Thank you for the great participation at late service yesterday. The choir sounded great. It was wonderful having so many of the choir there. When that happens they sound like they do when we practice during the week. This is a busy week with Lutheran Schools Week activities and preparation for Lutheran High North's Talent Festival. A special "yellow green" note was sent home with all participants today about the Talent Festival. Please check and find it so you know what is going on. If you have a question, please call, come ask or email me. Also check, there is a special note from me today about a project for making a display for Lutheran Schools Week. If you have a question about that please call, come ask or email me. Don't forget if your child wants to bring a high school student to Special Person's Day I need a note or email from you saying it is ok for them to miss their high school classes. The class will get their "big fish" t-shirts tomorrow. We just ran out of time at the end of the day. Please help your child remember to wear it on Thurs. Wed is Ash Wednesday. Come and worship with us at 10:00 am or in the evening at 7:00 pm. This is the beginning of Lent which lasts for 7 weeks and leads to Easter. Also our offerings on Wed was a little over $200 for Plumpynut. That means our school has raised enough money to feed 18 children for a month. The class also did a wonderful job presenting chapel last Wed. I was very proud of them. It was a little shaky Tues. afternoon when we practice.
Work
There is no Friday memory this week with Special Person's Day on Friday. The spelling test from Friday is tomorrow and the project is due also. We are still progressing in Science and Social Studies. There is a test in the near future but not this week. The solar systems really turned out great. A lot of wonderful ideas are displayed in creating the solar systems. Thank you for your help in this project. Do come in and check them out, they are in the hallway.
Sports
The faculty vs 7th & 8th grade teams was postponed to this Friday at 6:30 pm. They are trying to make it a family activity so the cheerleaders are involved from both 5th & 6th grade and the 7th & 8th grade. The lower grade pep club is involved. Those of us not playing are going to sit together on the floor and "support" our fellow staff members. So we would like to have all of you there if you can make it. I believe there will be some promotional activities for families to win Trinity items or even better.
