Today marks the beginning of Advent, a time of preparation and the beginning of a new liturgical year. As we enter this season, we are renewed with anticipation of the birth of Christ. With only three weeks of school before Christmas break, many things are happening in a short period of time.
Our Holiday Shop will be open this week; everyone should have the schedule (it can be found in Tidbits). Someone will come to your class to pick up the students with money to shop.
Monday, there will be people on site to work on the holes on the property. They will start with the hole near the sidewalk at approximately 10 am. It should not affect access to the FLC, but I will update you when they arrive in the morning. They plan to start working on the playgrounds at 1 pm. This means they need a clear path to the hole on the PK playground, and no one will have access to either playground after 1 pm. Extended Day students will remain indoors unless they have finished. The plan is to complete the work in one day.
We have found a company to fix the gate near the basketball court, and I am just waiting for a date for the repair. The contract for the hurricane damage has also been signed, and I am waiting on start dates for that project, too. The good news is that things are happening!
Wednesday is our Advent Retreat and the start of confessions for students in grades 3-8; more details to follow. Thank you, Melissa, for all your work on putting this together. Finally, 6th grade will be attending Focus 11 on Friday. Please keep them in your prayers as they explore religious vocations.
A special hats off to Kenny, who spent the day at school yesterday fixing a leak so we could have school tomorrow. We don't need any more school closures!
I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving and have a great week!
