April 26 Update

Camp Roger
The 7th grade students will be going to Camp Roger tomorrow in the afternoon with Miss Dahm. There is a chance that it will be muddy and/or rainy. We still go to camp even when the weather is not "perfect." It would be great if you could help make sure that your child wears and brings appropriate clothing for the day. Layers, a rain coat, and boots or shoes that can get muddy are a good idea. There is no hot lunch on Camp Roger days.

30 Hour Famine
30 Hour Famine is taking place this Friday. Thanks to many of you who volunteered to send in food for the breakfast on Saturday. We will be spending the day downtown at a few different ministries on Friday. Mrs. Oren will be facilitating activities after school and for the sleepover portion of the evening. Please contact her if you have questions about this. Thanks for praying for the students and staff as we serve and reflect on Friday.

End-of-the-Year Activities
Look for a paper coming home towards the end of this week or early next week with information about end-of-the-year activities. I am still working on solidifying some of the information and details for it, and will send home information as soon as I can.

Even though we are in fourth quarter and talking about end-of-the-year activities, there is still plenty of learning we hope to accomplish before the end of the year. Can you join us in helping remind your children that it is not summer vacation yet, and that we still expect appropriate behavior at school as well as excellent work? :)

Good Friday Service
I have received countless compliments from others about the 7th graders participation in the Good Friday service. They did an excellent job sharing their cardboard testimonies, and it was encouraging to see their honesty and boldness in sharing about how God has worked in their lives! Mel Solle took video of it on her phone and passed it on to me. I attempted to load the video on the blog today, but the network is slow this afternoon, and it is having trouble loading. I will try again later this week and let you know if I'm successful.
