Wow, what a fun week it has been! Thank you to all the families that participated in Trunk or Treat and helped at our classroom parties! It has been such a fun and exciting time for all the kids at school! The above video is of our Pre-K class getting ready for their Halloween Snack. Each day Mr. Miguel leads them in prayer before they get our fresh fruit and vegetable snack and I always want to capture it. It was my lucky day and I was able to catch it to share with all of you. Even when we celebrate fun and festive holidays God is at the center of our hearts.

Wow, que semana tan divertida ha sido! ¡Gracias a todas las familias que participaron en Trunk or Treat y ayudaron en nuestras fiestas en el aula! ¡Ha sido un momento tan divertido y emocionante para todos los niños en la escuela! El video de arriba es de nuestra clase de Pre-K preparándose para su refrigerio de Halloween. Cada día, el Sr. Miguel los guía en oración antes de que obtengan nuestro bocadillo de frutas y vegetales frescos y siempre quiero capturarlos. Fue mi día de suerte y pude atraparlo para compartirlo con todos ustedes. Incluso cuando celebramos fiestas divertidas y festivas, Dios está en el centro de nuestros corazones.

Today we celebrated All Saints Day with an "All-School All Star Mass". Students who have read loud and proud at mass were invited to read and some of our best behaved students were chosen to help in special roles. We had representatives from all grades K-8. Fr. Olvine stopped me after mass to tell me how impressed he is with our students work they have done to improve their responses at mass. Please encourage this at home too!

Hoy celebramos el Día de Todos los Santos con una "Misa estelar de toda la escuela". Los estudiantes que han leído en voz alta y orgullosos en la misa fueron invitados a leer y algunos de nuestros mejores alumnos fueron elegidos para ayudar en roles especiales. Tuvimos representantes de todos los grados K-8. P. Olvine me detuvo después de la misa para decirme cuán impresionado está con el trabajo de nuestros alumnos que han hecho para mejorar sus respuestas en la misa. Por favor alienta esto en casa también!
