Homework Week of January 23rd

Parent Reminders:


The first graders are reading a Chapter book called “Ready Freddy and the Penguin Problem”. The book is about a boy and his first grade class adopting a penguin.

We thought it would be a fun experience if we adopted a penguin too! We would like the kids to raise the money for the penguin adoption. The adoption is $50.00 through the NJ state aquarium. The money we raise will go toward our penguin’s food and living expenses for the year.


We are going to begin our coin drive called “Pennies for Penguins”. The idea is for students to do small chores or good deeds around the house to earn coins. Please do not send in a large amount of money with your child. If each child raises about $3.00, we will successfully reach our goal. 

Join us for Catholic School's Week Mass and Open house this Sunday, January 29th beginning with Mass at 9:00. 

Scholastic Book orders were placed in your child's folder. The classroom access code to order online is: N2KBZ
All orders are due by Friday, January 27th!

Please pack your child a dishtowel in their lunchbox to use each day. It will be used as a place mat to make our lunch clean up easier! :)
