Fall Has Arrived

 When I left for church this morning, I had to be sure to grab a sweater.  Cooler mornings have arrived and the temperature will no longer hit 90 degrees.  That's when you know Fall has finally arrived in Tampa Bay.  

This weekend we gained a new deacon to our parish who is also one of our parents.  Congratulations to Deacon Geoff D'Angelo who served at his first Mass here on Sunday.  

I am excited to begin a new ministry for our students with Fr. Izzie.  Nine of our 8th graders have volunteered to be sacristans after school Masses.  I'm hoping that the first group will begin their service this coming Wednesday.  Once the start date is confirmed I will send a schedule.  After rotating through the 8th graders, I will train 7th graders who will then continue next year.  

This coming week is a quiet week and a good time to focus on wrapping up the first trimester.  Please do not leave summatives for the final week as it becomes difficult to give retakes before grades are due.  

Teachers, our faculty meeting this Monday is a PLC but we will all begin together in Heather's room.  We will first continue our discussion of i-Ready tracking from our professional development.  Christa will share a spreadsheet she created that everyone can have access to - ESE, Title I, etc.  Our middle school/encore teacher book study PLC will be moved to Oct. 25.  

Have a fantastic week!
