Students playing Settlers of Catan to better understand trade and how civilizations are built and developed.

Welcome to the Week Ahead!

As we begin a new week, we also welcome the start of the new trimester. It’s a great time for students to refocus and set new goals for the coming months. Let's take this opportunity to continue striving for academic excellence while growing in faith and character. With the Theotokos as our guide, may this trimester bring blessings and success to all of our students.

For this upcoming week:

Feastday on Monday:

This Monday, we will celebrate the Protection of the Theotokos with Liturgy in the morning. Please arrive on time so students can fully participate. Classes will follow after the Liturgy.

English Classes

  • 4th/5th Grade: Students will explore different types of sentences and dive into creative writing assignments using Shurley English.

  • 6th Grade: We’ll discuss themes of human vs. nature conflicts and connect them to faith as we continue reading Where the Red Fern Grows.

  • 7th/8th Grade: Students will complete their final essays on Silas Marner, focusing on character development and moral themes.

Have a wonderful week!
