Over the summer our school had a bit of a facelift (painting, sprucing up, clearing out clutter). Teachers were in and out during the summer getting ready for the year, planning, and collaborating. Tuesday, our halls filled with energetic students who flowed into classrooms with smiles and anticipation. Thank you for sending us amazing, kind, funny, and curious students. We are off to a great start and this journey is going to be amazing.
This week we are especially greatful for families donating canned food, weekend mass alter servers Sierra, Nora, Nathan, Amira, Ella, Lily, Brielle, Joey, Henry, Eli, Zach, Georgia and to our Staff for hosting our first school mass. TITANS - Last year Holy Trinity staff recreated a set of core beliefs for the school. These were featured in last week’s bulletin and are on the new banners at the entrance to the school. These are our guiding beliefs or values as a school. This week teachers introduce these beliefs to our students and share that we will use these in all aspects of school.
VIRTUES - This year, we are continuing our exploration of virtues and how they guide our lives. This week, teachers will explain what a virtue is and how it should be applied in our lives at home, at school, and in our activities. From Weeks 3 to 5, we will focus on the theological virtues:
TRAFFIC - The new traffic pattern for drop off and pick up is going well. Thank you for keeping to one lane of traffic. A reminder, the handicapped parking spaces are for drivers who genuinely need those spaces. Please do not park in those spaces, even to just run into the office quickly.
TITAN TICKETS - Also, this year we continue to use Titan Tickets to acknowledge exemplary actions, behaviors, or leadership by our students. This year students turn tickets into their teachers rather than “spending” them at a school wide Titan store.
