NWEA MAP testing begins this week for students in grades K-8 both in-person and remote students.
Parents are reminded that students who are taking the test remotely must have their camera on and parental involvement should be minimal especially in Kindergarten and first grade.
These tests are measures of student growth and as such are used to determine any assistance a child will need in September when students will all be returning to school in person. 


Seed Planting 
Students in the UPK Program along with Mrs. Fundora's class have planted seeds in small seedling greenhouses the past two weeks.
Students in Mrs. Rodriguez's class and the Kindergarten will be planting this coming Friday May 14th.
We are grateful to Mr. Montas and the students of the            6th grade who have been instrumental in assisting the 3 and 4 year old students with this project. 

First Holy Communion - May 21st 9:00 AM 

Confirmation - June 7th - 10:00 AM 

Reminder 

ONLY 4 guests permitted and must wear a mask and have their temperature taken.


Report Card Progress and Summer School
The third quarter report card notified  parents if their child will be required to attend summer school in order to be promoted to the next grade.  There is ample time -- 2 months of school remaining for students to improve their grades in order to avoid summer school.
The report card will note that Summer Summer in PERSON is a requirement for promotion.
Please speak to your child's teacher on Friday during the scheduled report card time.
The summer school program is free and open to open to all students. Students who are failing will be required to attend in person for the whole program which will be held here at OLQM.

Also as listed in the parent/student handbook children who have been absent more than 20 school days will be retained in that grade.

As always parents may see Mr. Woods on Sundays from 11:00 AM - 3:00 PM with any of their concerns regarding their child's progress, summer school or promotion to the next grade.
There is no appointment needed for parents to see Mr. Woods on Sundays.

The tentative schedule for Summer School is:
Begins June 30, 2021
Ends August 12, 2021
Class from 8:00 AM -12:00 noon
