Dear Kindergarten Families,
I hope this email finds you well.
Last week was filled with so many blessings!
Our class celebrated the leprechaun visiting and surprising everyone with new crayons – perfect timing as we get ready for April and “Reducing, Reusing, and Recycling.” Everyone is excited to recycle our old crayons!
We continued exploring ocean habitats by visiting the Aquarium of the Pacific. Thank you again to our parent chaperones, Mrs. Gomez (Leonardo’s mom), Ms. Le (Vashti’s mom), Mr. Pineda (Gianni’s dad) and Mrs. Vasquez (Castiel’s mom) and aides, Ms. Gomez and Ms. Maria for helping enrich our young scientists and the Catholic Education Foundation and the Steinmetz Foundation for generously providing our bus!
Lastly, thank you to all father figures for celebrating Mass with us at the Feast of St. Joseph and your spiritual leadership in the home.
