Dear St. Joseph School Parents:          8-27-10


THANK YOU for choosing us for your child's education and formation.  We are grateful to have this opportunity to serve you in such an important mission.  As members of this fine school, we pledge to provide a "safe, discipline, and Christ-centered environment," complete with weekly mass and daily faith lessons.  With three days of school under our belts, we all agree that this will be our best year ever.  Our new kindergarten class is our largest ever, and we have a big group of eighth graders this year.  The new students are assimilating (adjusting) very well, and the teachers are giving glowing reports of the students behavior (so far, so good).


Several items need to be addressed so that out school functions smoothly and the children can continue their academic growth and their faith formation:


1.  Week @ a Glance is a communications tool to keep you informed of school day events.  Please post them on the refrigerator.

2.  Check our website
www.stjosephcrestline.org for information.
3.  We have jr. high football and 4-8th volleyball for the children.  Call us if you need more information.

4.  Be sure your child gets to bed early these first few weeks as they adjust to getting up early for school.

5.  We have mass every Friday at 8:30 a.m.  Please join us and sit with your child's class or have them sit with you.  This way you can see the expected behavior all the students demonstrate at mass.


With this short week, I have a short letter.  More to come by next Friday!


In His service,

Mrs. Price
Principal
