7th Kell Information Week of May 3-9
National Day of Prayer:
On Thursday, May 7, our school will participate in the National Day of Prayer beginning at 8:30am at the flagpole on the north side of campus. During this time, we will pray together and recognize our local police officers, firefighters, veterans, and celebrate the 250th anniversary of our country. Students are encouraged to wear red, white, and blue in honor of this special day. If the weather does not allow us to be outside, the event will take place inside the church.
MAP Notes of Encouragement
Our end of the year MAP testing is rapidly approaching. It has been a great year and we have seen so much growth in learning since the beginning of the year. We are so proud of the dedication to excellence and mastery that your child has demonstrated. It is finally time for your student to shine and show off what they have learned.
Our testing will be the second and third weeks in May. It is very important that our students be present and ready to do their best on their assigned testing days. A good night of rest and a great breakfast to start the day is always needed!
Included with this letter, you will find an envelope and a piece of paper. Please write a short note of encouragement to your child. Let them know you will be praying for them.
Please return the envelope (with your child’s name written on it) to your classroom teacher by Friday, May 8th. Remember that this is a SECRET MISSION. We don’t want the students to know about your note until the day of their first test!
Possible Volunteer Hours
Melissa Meier, a member of St. Paul, is the treasurer for the St. Finbar’s cemetery association. St. Finbar’s is a two acre historic cemetery located in the Town of Saukville, close to where Riveredge nature center is. She is looking for a group that could do a light raking of the grounds. Other volunteers have picked up the larger sticks this last weekend, (there are a lot of trees), but the small sticks and some leaves left from fall need to be raked. Depending on interest and availability, a tentative date for this activity is May 16th.
If this is an opportunity for you to offer help for the community service hours, please reach out to Mrs. Yurk. She’ll be in touch with Mrs. Meier.

Students may wear shorts during the months of August, September, October, May and June or at discretion of the Principal. Shorts must be mid-thigh length or longer and may have a decorative frayed hem.
