WEATHER RELATED REMINDERS
St. Paul’s Lutheran School mimics New Ulm Public school on days off for weather related events. When weather conditions arise, the school will communicate late starts, early dismissals, or school closings, through our FACTS Parent Alert via telephone, email, and text messages. You can also watch for New Ulm Public School on TV or listen for the same on the radio.
LOST AND FOUND TABLE
The lost and found items will be set out on tables until Parent / Teacher Conferences. If you are missing clothing since the beginning of the school year, we likely have it in our lost and found. Please stop in to take a look!
NO SCHOOL DATES IN NOVEMBER
Here is a reminder for days off in November. The first one is this Friday, November 4 for a Teachers’ Work Day. During the following week students are excused early, 11:30 am, on Thursday, November 10, and no school on Friday, November 11 for Parent/Teacher Conferences. After a full week, we have a two day week for Thanksgiving. Days off that week are Wednesday-Friday, November 23-25.

GET TO KNOW OUR TEACHERS
Each of the teachers has provided some fun and unique facts about himself/herself. We plan to share this information so that you can make your own guess as to who might have experienced these three fun facts.

Share your thoughts on the Raider Events Committee Facebook page. We will publish the identity of the mystery teacher on the Facebook page as well.
