Congratulations!  Msgr. Maresca celebrates his 35th Anniversary of Priesthood as the month begins. 

Grades 1 - 8: We continue to explore a variety of programs in curricular-related situations.  Keyboarding practice with one of the many online age-appropriate programs is important.

Students in grades 3-8 have a variety of personal online accounts for practice (e.g. Grades 3 & 4 Mathletics) and for productivity (e.g. Grades 4 - 8 Kerpoof).

Kindergarten students should practice
locating letters - we've been using the letter of the week to create printouts.
