Today has been a busy day as kids spent the morning doing activities in the gym and reflecting on the stations of the cross in order to prepare for Easter week. This is a very important time in the Catholic calendar and so it is a great opportunity for us to teach kids about important human values such as forgiveness, mercy, caring and solidarity. This year the Pope (leader of the catholic church) has declared it the year of "Mercy" which has been the theme for today's activities.
Later in the day we completed or first portion of the IOWA Tests. I will be sending home their quarter exams as well as Quarter 3 Portfolios on Friday, as always please look over it and send back signed to school on the following Monday.
