Weekly Rocket Newsletter
Friday, January 22nd, 2021
Rocket Families,
Happy Friday! It is hard to believe, but we only have one more week of January! It is COLD out, so please make sure all students have warm coats, hats, and gloves/mittens. We will continue to go out for recess when we can, and we want everyone to be as warm as possible.
Catholic Schools Week is the first week of February. Stay tuned for our list of activities coming out next week. We will have activities for all of our in-person and e-learners.
Finally, when we began the year, the Archdiocese, recognizing that there would be greater expectations of teachers this year than in past years, told principals to add 5 extra PD days throughout the year as teachers/staff needed them. We will be using one of those additional PD days on Monday, March 8th. There will be no classes that day. Thank you for your flexibility in ensuring that teachers and staff have the time to plan best for our students.
Have a Blessed Weekend,
Gerit McAllister
A HUGE thank you to the AACA community “We Love our Teachers” group for the thoughtful gifts to our staff upon their return to the building! It was much appreciated.
If you'd like to donate to fund "We Love our Teachers" initiatives please go here. 19 families have donated $2,390 toward our $7,000 goal! THANK YOU!
Check out these BRAND NEW, rigorous, complex texts our third and fourth graders are about to dig into as part of the ELA curriculum they are piloting. Wow!
