Today marked the beginning of Catholic Schools Week. The theme is, "A+ for America Catholic Schools." At the opening liturgy this morning our students at Blessed Sacrament School talked about how Catholic Schools provide Achievement, Academics, Attitude, Athletics. Catholic Schools in America provide a well-rounded education. Students who graduate from Catholic Schools go on to be professionals and leaders.
After the liturgy, we had an open-house. All the teachers were in their classrooms. Third grade students and their parents came in to see what fourth grade will be like. Some of my students and their parents stopped in to say hello. Also, some of my former students came as well as their parents. It was wonderful to see them and find out how they are doing in high school and in college. It is funny how I can still picture where they sat in my classroom when they were in fourth grade.

We have several activities planned for the week which include assemblies, playing games with our buddies, writing cards to those at the VA hospital, playing bingo, and watching a movie. Not much will be normal this week in the classroom, however, the students will enjoy themselves. Someday they will realize how fortunate they were to attend a Catholic School.
