Today ended spirit week. We voted for best mascot and we would like to congratulate the Sixth Grade. All the mascots were great so it was hard to choose. Here our pictures of our mascot and some of the others. Also the teachers vs the 8th graders in basketball. The teachers won! There was fun had by all. Good thing this teacher has the weekend to recover!

Walk to School Day!
Sorry that this is a little late,but I wanted to post pictures of last week's Walk to School Day. It was a cool crisp Autumn morning ,but a lot of students either walked, biked, or skateboarded to school. Hopefully this made us all aware to protect our environment.
Here are some pictures of that day.

Cultural Heritage Day!
This has been a busy week! Not only did we have a former Oylmpic swimmer visit us, but it is also Cultural Heritage Week! Today we had students bring in artifacts and food from their cultures. There was a lot to share so I will post more pictures next week. Don't forget Friday, September 25th is a teacher institute day, so there will be no classes for our students tomorrow.

A Special Guest!
On Tuesday we had an assembly for our students and the guest speaker was an Olympic gold medalist from the 1960 games in Rome! His name was Mr. Bill Milliken. He told our students about his ex and also was hopeful that the games would be here in Chicago in 2016!
Thank you Mr. Milliken for talking to our students!

Family Mass this Sunday and Our Weather Sketchers!
First, I would like to invite everyone to this Sunday's Family mass at 9:45 AM. It is a great way to come together as a school and parish community to celebrate the Eucharist. If your child is doing something for the mass please be there no later than 9:30. Please make sure that your child is dressed appropriately. There will be snacks after mass so please come by and say hello.
Secondly, I would like to congratulate some of the Fifth Grade students that have been or will be featured as a Weather Sketcher on the Channel 7 Morning News! So far Nathanyel, Jackie, Zyanya,and Adriana were feature this week. Next week look for Arianna at 5:AM and David at 6:30 AM on Monday, September 21st, then Nayra at 5:AM on Wednesday, September 23rd, and finally Mayra at 5:30 on Thursday, September 24th. Congratulations to all the students for the effort they put into their drawings!
