Dear Parents and Guardians,
 
Our students put their greatest effort forward on the ASPIRE tests last week.  They reported to their teachers that the tests were challenging, but many liked the new format.
 
This past weekend, our second graders participated in their First Communion Retreat.  On Monday, NJHS took a service field trip to Feed My Starving Children where they worked together as a team to pack sack lunches.  Students involved in Eco Club and Leadershop led our school in a Waste Free Lunch competition on Tuesday.  We are eager to see which classroom produced the least amount of waste! 
 
On Tuesday, our students dressed down in green and raised money for Cure Search.  They also had the opportunity to hear from a Cure Search representative about the foundation and mission of the organization.  The non-profit organization helps change children's lives by searching for cures to children's cancer.
 
We hope you have a great week and are enjoying our beautiful weather!
 
It's always a great day to be a Cardinal!
Blessings,

Lauren Lewandowski
St. Cletus School, Principal
