Permission slips have been sent home

Good morning everyone, 
 
Permission slips for this Friday's Christmas Pageant, which will be held at the 70th Street Campus, have been sent home.  Please note that we will dismiss directly from the 70th street campus at the conclusion of the event.  
 
Attached to that slip would be the permission slip for our January 6th Mass, which will also be at Blessed Sacrament Church.  
 
Please sign and return both and have a blessed day!  

Both classes - feedback provided on your slides

Students, 
 
Please check your slide shows - look at the speaker notes box on the bottom of the slides for the feedback.  Many students did not work on them over the weekend - time stamp and lack of slides/information confirm.  Please reconsider as they are due Friday.  12/13.

Update - the gym is unavailable tomorrow (unfortunately)

Hence - there is no need to pack sneakers. 
 
Apologies on late notice.  

SCHOOL UNIFORM for tomorrow's prayer service

Sorry for the late update - students are expected to wear their school uniforms for tomorrow's prayer service at the Church of the Blessed Sacrament.  
 
Sneakers in their book bag for gym - we have done that before and that would be fine.  

For 5th grade - there is a Science quiz Monday
