Middle School is all a buzz, with the 8th graders receiving their letters from their HS. Congrads to all. Confirmation retreat has been completed and from what I hear, it was a success. No major project in Science untill mid-March or after the Easter break. We are looking at Volcanos for the 6th, planting a seeds for the 7th, and building bridges in the 8th. I will keep you posted. Just a reminder to encourage the students to continue to study their material. During these months, students have a tendency to "slack" off. Not every student, but some do. Together, we will continue to educate the future scholars. As always, my door is always open. Questions, contact me. Thanks and please keep Christ in your hearts this Lenten season. http://www.stlblog.org/lpawelski/2010/02/dull_days_of_winter.html http://www.stlblog.org/lpawelski/2010/02/dull_days_of_winter.html Thu, 18 Feb 2010 18:02:03 -0600 Greetings: I hope everyone enjoyed the Christmas holidays. Thank you for all the wonderful gifts that I recieved from you and the students. Well, the winter days are upon us and from the looks of things, they will be here for a couple more months. 8th graders have taken their HS test and are waiting for their results. We all prayed that they would do well and I am sure they did. Middle School is moving along and will be gearing up for the Terra Nova Test in March, to given to the 7th graders. Science projects are planned for the 4th quarter and I will keep you posted. Any questions, please contact me. http://www.stlblog.org/lpawelski/2010/01/greetings_i_hope_everyone_enjo.html http://www.stlblog.org/lpawelski/2010/01/greetings_i_hope_everyone_enjo.html Wed, 20 Jan 2010 14:16:18 -0600 The holidays are coming, but before they get here, I need to fill you in on a few things. The 7th and 8th graders are working on a paper dealing with Environment Sciences. This paper is due on the 17th of December. During the holidays, I enjoy reading these papers sitting by the tree. The 6th graders will be working on an in-school project. We will be covering the food chains and biomes. I will be looking forward to working on these project with them. Other news, White Pines went well. I think the students learned a lot about the outdoors as well as themselves. A special thanks to all the parents that went to White Pines. As always, if you have any concerns or questions, please email me or call the school.If I don't get a chance, Happy Thanksgiving and Happy Holidays to all. http://www.stlblog.org/lpawelski/2009/11/holidays_are_coming.html http://www.stlblog.org/lpawelski/2009/11/holidays_are_coming.html Thu, 12 Nov 2009 21:24:35 -0600 The first quarter is coming to a rapid close. Students have settled in and are working hard. 6th graders are working on a DNA project, which should be completed soon. 7th and 8th graders will be assigned a written project the second quarter. Middle School as a whole, is doing a great job this quarter. Up coming events include White Pines and a trip to Pulman on the East Side for the 8th graders. Any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me at school. http://www.stlblog.org/lpawelski/2009/10/the_first_quarter_is_coming.html http://www.stlblog.org/lpawelski/2009/10/the_first_quarter_is_coming.html Wed, 07 Oct 2009 12:34:47 -0600 Well, back to school.
