The South County Kiwanis Club honored 8th grader Estelle as an “all-around” outstanding student. Daily, Estelle goes out of her way to bring a smile to other people. She’s a great student who works hard for her grades and has a kind word for everyone she meets. Estelle is a member of the National Junior Honor Society, Horton's Heroes, Mini Vinnies, and SFA Broadway.
We are proud of you, Estelle!



Thank you to our friend Miles, who purchased a snowball fight and popsicles with his LiveSchool Points. The fourth grade (and their teachers) had a blast chasing each other around the gym with snowballs.

On Friday, the Middle School students participated in a poverty simulation. They received different designations of income and education. During each round, they had to figure out how to get transportation, housing, and food while receiving a life card, which could help or hurt their situation. We are thrilled they could participate in this impactful simulation.

The Franciscan Missionaries of the Eternal Word offer this prayer for the Holy Father:
Lord Jesus, you have called Pope Francis to yourself. Thank you for the gift of his papacy. When he was with us, he tirelessly showed the Church your constant mercy toward sinners. Grant him now your mercy and let him rest eternally with you in your Kingdom.
Through Christ our Lord. Amen.


🦋Our 3rd graders released their butterflies into the wild earlier this week. Two very special guests were here to watch the release, Mrs. Wendl and baby Andrew! The next step in this science unit is a trip to the butterfly house!
