Week of November 26, 2018




PreK Developmental Survey
Parents of students in all the PreK programs will be receiving Developmental Surveys in January and June.
Mr. Woods apologizes for the confusion this past Tuesday. 
All PreK students will receive portfolio assessments at the end of the quarters in November and March when the older students receive a report card.
Educate (Cornerstone) does not keep a running record of student's progress for PreK students. Parents of all PreK students should check in periodically with their child's teacher should they have concerns about their child's academic progress.


Parents and students are thanked for the generous outpouring for the outreach program at St. Patrick's home in the Bronx.
There were 1760 cans of food collected and 15 turkeys were purchased through dress down day collections on Fridays.
The canned food and the turkeys were delived to the home through the concerted efforts of Mr. Placido, Ms. Serewko, Ms. Wong, Freddy and the students of the Confirmation Class.
Students of the 5th grade were the winners of the canned food drive having brought in 335 cans and will be having a pizza party this week for their effort.
