From the Desk of Mrs. Schumann April 20- April 29

Dear Eighth Grade Parents and students,

Can you believe we leave for DC on Thursday?  It’s been a yearlong in planning and it’s finally here.  Parents, do NOT forget to bring along a form of ID.  See you all at 11:45 pm on Wednesday. 

Shower Your Support For Our New Reading Curriculum!  Have you been able to fill your April Reading Curriculum Calendar with donors?  100% of all funds raised will go toward the new curriculum that will be introduced next school year.  Our first initial quote came in at $110,000.  Please find sponsors that will help us reach a goal of raising enough to cover at least 50% of our new curriculum.  Calendars were shared in the 2nd trimester report card packets.

Bleeke Scholarship Applications are due April 30.  This Scholarship is for any student attending a Lutheran high school their freshman year.  This scholarship if different than the financial aid you receive from St. Paul.  This scholarship is based on a student’s academic performance and service.  Students must fill out an application and submit it to school by April 30.  (I highly recommend that you fill out this application before our DC trip, since it is due the day we return.) Students, who are awarded this scholarship, find out on graduation night.  If you need a copy of the application please contact me.

Community Service Hours:  8^th graders need 10 hours of community service by May 1.  If you have any questions about this, please contact me.  Sheets for filling out your hours are found on the website.
