Hi Kinder Families,
This week we learned how to write numbers 1 and 2 and the life cycle of a pumpkin ahead of our trip to the pumpkin patch on Tuesday! We will be notifying you all about parent drivers today.
Our Feature Image:
Monday was National Bosses Day and Ms. Griffin was kindly given balloons by the staff which she then gave to the Kinders! They had so much fun playing with their balloon!

Halloween at St. Paul
- If your child plans on bringing a treat to share with all their classmates (there are 31 students in total), please be sure they are nut-free and individually wrapped. We ask that you do not individualize the treats by putting names on them but you can put who it’s from (i.e. you may write “From _________”, but please NOT “To ___________”).
-
- Your child is welcome to come in a costume, or wear black and/or orange. If wearing a costume, please keep in mind the following:
- We are a Catholic community, therefore costumes must be modest, respectful of others, and free of offensive language.
- We are focused on student safety and peace of mind, therefore: no weapons or replica weapons of any kind (guns, swords, knives, chains, etc.); no blood or slime; no witches, ghosts, goblins, zombies, or scary monsters.
- We are a learning community, therefore students must be able to sit at their desk comfortably and consider the space of others (no big hats or wide wings); fully participate in all class activities (including PE and recess times); and see and hear clearly (no face masks).
- Your child is welcome to come in a costume, or wear black and/or orange. If wearing a costume, please keep in mind the following:
