Dear Kindergarten families,
I hope everyone is having a blessed weekend. It was so nice to be back in class with our Kinder Friends. Thank you to the Desk Fairy who delivered new crayons. In honor of Earth Day, we learned about Reducing, Reusing and Recycling by working together to repurpose our old crayons.
As a class, we had fun voting in The Daily Breeze’s “Best of” contest. We voted for St. Anthony of Padua as South Bay’s Best Catholic and Private School. Hopefully, your child helped you vote at home! All entries and votes are due by April 23rd by 11:59pm. To vote
- Complete the online registration form at the end of the ballot on southbayvotes.com

We are down to our last trimester! Here are some of the expectations that I am looking out for:

- Kindergarteners should use an uppercase/capital letter at the beginning of EVERY sentence and have spacing between words.
- Correct punctuations or end marks (period, exclamation point, or question mark) should be used at the end of EVERY sentence.
- Kindergarteners should be able to read weekly sight words (see curriculum map or list in green folder).
- Kindergarteners should be able to write neatly and form letters and numbers (1-20) correctly.
- All kindergarteners must know the Sign of the Cross, Hail Mary, and Prayer before Meal and Guardian Angel Prayer.
- All kindergarteners must follow classroom rules and school Tribes agreements.
