A Message from Mrs. Gunderson...
Dear Parents,
Thank you for attending parent-teacher conferences. The turnout was great, which is testimony to how involved you are in your child’s education!
If you were at Mardi Gras last Saturday, you know that we reached our fundraising goal toward upgrading the furnishings in our elementary classrooms! On behalf of our parish and staff, I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who donated at Mardi Gras and for your continued support and generosity! The new upgrades throughout the elementary classrooms are going to be beautiful! The evening was a huge success overall.
I just returned from visiting our famous Science Fair that our middle school students participated in. By looking at the pictures below you can see why I was so impressed! Our students did an excellent job explaining their projects and defending their hypothesis! Thank you to Mrs. Thamert for leading the Science Fair!
Have a wonderful weekend. God Bless!
