Dear Families,

Next week we will read and discuss the third chapter in our Family Life Series, “The Love of Jesus”. Through this study we will identify friendship as one of the most important human relationships. Together we will share how Jesus is a model of friendship for us. We will also discuss that God’s gift of sexuality is interwoven with all aspects of human life.

The Chapter 3 math test is scheduled for Tuesday, November 25th.
The class will take the pre-test on Wednesday, November 19th. Math books will be sent home so the students may study and further prepare each night. We will also continue reviewing each day in class.

Please remember to return permission slips for our field trip to the Miwok Village at the Point Reyes National Seashore in Marin on Tuesday, November 25th. We will leave school at 10:00 and return close to 3:00. Thanks to all who have volunteered to drive - Clare, Morelli, O’Ceallaigh, Trevino, VanKoll, DeLuca. THANK YOU!

Drivers for the symphony are Sin (3), Levaux (5), H. Woolcott (3), Parina (5), and P.Woolcott (7), Elmendorf & Trevino. Many thanks!
