Summer Time

Our first graders have accomplished so much this year!

It is difficult to mention all of their successes in this site. Most of the children can read any book in our classroom that they pick up. The math facts through 20 are no longer the challenge they once were. Progress has been made in handwriting, story composition, art, science and social studies projects.

The class has read during our Masses, has sung many "holy" songs and can tell you about most of the holy days and saints.

My advice to parents is that they continue to have their children read something everyday during the summer months, go over the math facts in games or while driving on vacaton, go to Sunday Mass, go to the library, the museums in our area and just plain have fun!

All the Sisters of Divine Providence join me in wishing all of you the peace and happpiness that comes with the coming of the Holy Spirit at this Pentecostal season!
