Student Council Needs Photos!
On December 16th, the Student Council will lead our Winter Spirit Assembly. We will be honoring all fall activities on a slide show, but we need photos! If you have snapped any pictures of soccer, cross country, chess, basketball, etc. that you would be willing to share, please email them to Kaleen Covington. Our Sports Commissioner will be providing narration and captions, so names and grade of the people in the photos will be very helpful when you send the pictures.
Coaster Contest
Thank you to all who participated in our art contest to design our school Christmas gifts this year. We received many more submissions than anticipated and had a difficult time selecting eight. One important consideration in our selection was how the picture looked when reduced to the right size for the coaster. The eight selected submissions can be viewed through the school website. The selected artists were: Joseph Burroughs (6th), Amelia Jenkins (8th), Alana Montoya (5th), Claire Russell (6th), Linley Porter (8th), Eva Stojanovic (3th), Nicole Stojanovic (4th), and Makena Weber (3th). All eight students will receive a set of coasters next week.

Uniform Reminders
The time has come when boots can be worn to school, as a reminder, boots may only be worn with pants. Please remember, that when once we return from mid-winter break, students will no longer be able to wear boots this year school.
I have also noticed a number of students wearing leggings under their jumpers/skirts. Per our uniform policy, students are to wear either solid white, navy, or green socks or tights. For more detailed information on Sacred Heart School's uniform policy, please refer to our website.
Thank you - Ms. Gray
Pre-Kindergarten & Kindergarten 2012-2013
We are now accepting applications for our Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten programs for the 2012-13 school year. Please click on the above links for more detailed information on the application process and deadlines.
Report Card Information
Report cards for the first trimester will be sent home this Friday with our students. Along with grades, students in grades 3-8 will receive a copy of their ITBS scores. For the first time, students in grades 3, 5, 7 & 8 will also receive a copy of their CogAt scores. The CogAt is a cognitive aptitude test. The ITBS test measures what students have learned and the CogAT measures their cognitive ability. This provides the school with valuable information so that we can measure how students are learning compared to their predictions provided by the CogAT. It will also help us, as we explore the CogAT results more fully, to better meet the learning needs of all of our students with this additional information.
Middle School report cards will not have attendance included this trimester. The final report cards for the year will show attendance and you can still view your child's attendance on Power School. However, a glitch that is being fixed prevents printing them on the report cards at this time. This will not affect 8th grade applications as the school is required to enter this information by hand on the application form.
Outstanding Teacher and Staff Awards
Nomination forms for our first Outstanding Teacher and Staff Awards are due Friday, March 9th. We are now accepting nominations.
