From The Principal's Office:

Dear Parents:

Well, Spring is here and, hopefully, we are finished with "inside recess." March has been full of activity. Our 8th Grade WKCE tests are back and I am proud to say our 8th Graders again did a great job. Our 3rd, 5th and 7th Graders just finished our Iowa Test of Basic Skills. Kudos to our teachers for their attention to State and Archdiocesan expectations for each grade level.

We are excited about the expansion of our K4 program. We already have 12 students enrolled for next Fall. Our two teachers, Mrs. Beedie and Mrs. Martinez, are positive, nurturing and well aware of four year old learning development.

Please check out our website. Thanks to Mark Nasgowitz and Dave Markovich several of us have been trained in adding information.

Have a restful, happy Easter!

Dr. Judy Mortell
