March 22-26, 2021
Dear Parents,
There is definitely a feeling of spring in the air this weekend! With spring, new life becomes more evident and I’m reminded of how Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life! We are continuing our focus on the Passion Week this week. You are invited to experience a passover meal during our home day Bible lesson on Tuesday. Be sure to see the “advanced preparation” suggestions listed in the blog. I pray it is a rich experience for your family!
Our 4th graders will begin our Market Day projects this week! I’m thrilled we will be able to have a Market Day experience this year. Details are still being worked out as to what extent we may be able to have it in person. Please see the materials in your child’s folder and stay tuned for more details as they become finalized.
Our 3rd marking period concluded last Friday! Report cards will be posted online by Friday at midnight. On Wednesday, March 31, report Cards will be sent home for ZCS and SHC students.\
Book Orders will be sent home this week! If you would like to order any books, please order online with our class code-GLV7F. HOME DELIVERY: During the COVID-19 crisis, families can choose at checkout to have their online orders shipped home or delivered to school with your class order. Shop at https://clubs.scholastic.com/home. (I did not receive a 5th gr. flyer for some reason this month. (All flyers are accessible online.) Please order by Friday, March 26. Thank you!
