Happy New Year!!

Happy New Year, everyone! I would like to wish everyone a healthy and happy 2013! I hope you all enjoyed the Christmas break and were able to spend time with friends and family. My niece was married on the Saturday after Christmas so I was able to see family that I don't normally see over the holidays! 2013 will also be an exciting year for your fourth grader! We are tackling 2-digit multiplication, long division, and fractions! I am sure the kids will amaze themselves as they conquer these more difficult concepts! We will also be finishing up our solar system unit and moving on to plants and animals. Don't forget, Catholic Schools Week begins this month. There will be many exciting activities. Please make sure you check the weekly newsletters so you know what your child should be wearing to school that week! I am so thankful that we are able to celebrate our Catholic schools and recognize the very special education that our children are receiving that combines faith with academics - what a wonderful privilege you are providing your children with!!
