Dear Parents,
WOW, only one more week of these lovely updates (after today's).... I think that is crazy! I am looking forward to seeing what these great 7th graders will accomplish as 8th graders!
This week:
Tuesday: Everyone must wear their uniform TUESDAY. We are taking our all school picture in the morning. Graduation is a 6pm. ALL 7th graders are expected to be there for graduation and to help serve during the reception. It will be a fun night of celebration and fellowship!
Wednesday: NO uniforms today! Church is at 8:45 and we hope you can join us.
Thursday: PIG test... They've had lots of opportunities to study the past couple weeks, so I anticipate spectacular grades!
Friday: FIELD DAY! Check your email for what your child is supposed to wear. So far looks like no rain in the forecast. I would highly recommend sun screen and a water bottle for this very fun day! A huge thanks go out to Jenny Turk and the 5th grade planning crew!!!
Have a great week!
Many blessings,
Kim

Dear Parents,
Great weekend and all is well! :) Short up date for the week...
Monday: choir/music class rehearsal in the afternoon
Tuesday: Business Ed presentations; dress rehearsal in the afternoon; Spring Concert at 7pm; 6th grade articles due
Wednesday: 7th grade articles due; Home and School association 6:30
Thursday: 8th grade articles due; my reading class binder is due by the end of the day
Friday and Monday: Enjoy Memorial Day weekend! :)
Just a few reminders:
Graduation information... we've sent home paper copies and sent lots of emails. PLEASE visit with Beth Rodwell if you have any questions or concerns. It is very important for the students and their parents to attend.
"THE BIG PIG TEST" is coming! :) It is the 29th and students have their study guides and have been given a lot of time to study. I hope that they have given the effort to be studying, it is a difficult test ONLY if the student hasn't studied.
We are going to Devil's Lake for our end of the year trip. It will be Thursday, June 5th. We hope that you will be able to join us. The more parents the easier it is for the kids to get to go exploring. The smaller the groups to hike, the better!
Take care! I hope you all are doing well and that as we wind up the end of the year that you know how much I have enjoyed having your child in homeroom this year!

Dear Parents,
It is with a heavy heart that I sit here and write this out tonight. Friday morning we heard devastating news of the death of Mr. Dave St. John. The faculty heard only a half hour prior to the meeting with the kids. It was a very hard day, but God held us all close. Thankfully, the hunger walk was already scheduled so the kids did get to get some fresh air and some time to spend with one another just enjoying the community. Mr. Dave's funeral information is as follows: Monday visitation from 4-7pm, here at St. Dennis and the funeral is Tuesday at 10am. Mr. Beisser has done a great job keeping us all posted on information and we sure appreciate his leadership right now. It was decided that if your child wants to attend the funeral, it must be with a parent. With that said, I am sure the week will be a little rough and if your child needs a break, have them come and talk to me and we can figure something out.
THE PIG DISSECTION is finally here. We begin tomorrow morning. The students will get their pig and have enough time to get a general lay of the land. I have plenty of gloves, so they should all be fine. They all know that we will take it slow and seriously, but hopefully not too seriously. :) I've already started praying for a successful experience for each and everyone of them. We will be working on this for the next 2 weeks. If you would like to check it out, science is M, Tues, Thurs from 8:30-9:10 and Wed from 12:40-1:20 (should be interesting right after lunch!). Feel free to stop in if you would like.
The play tryouts and practice are this week. Hopefully some students have shown some interest in participating. If your child is interested, I would encourage them to come to tryouts after school on Monday.
Looks like the rest of the week will be fairly normal. The play is Friday night and Saturday for a matinee.
Don't forget SCRIP orders by 10 on Tuesday.
Many blessings and give those kiddos some extra squeezes this week!
