Dear Parents and Students:

A middle school lock-in is scheduled for September 16-17.  A permission slip was sent home with your child on Friday.  This is an excellent opportunity to build relationships among students, parents, and the staff at St. Paul Lutheran School!  At the bottom of the permission slip there is an area in which you can indicate how you would like to assist in this event.  Thank you for helping to make the lock-in a success.

We had a meeting this past week regarding See You at the Pole and it was very productive.  We broke into committees for public relations, food, music, etc.  We are in the developmental stages of this event, so there is still time to get involved if you would like to do so.  Please feel free to contact us with any ideas or suggestions.

See You at the Pole t-shirt order forms are due by Tuesday, August 31.  The shirt is a sapphire blue and looks great!  Please indicate the size on the form and enclose $11 if you would like to purchase the t-shirt.

Please continue to support the Food Bank of the Rio Grande Valley, Inc. during the months of August and September.  They are accepting school supplies, canned food, and monetary donations.  If you would like to make a donation, please send it by Wednesday.

I am offering five points towards Algebra Quiz 2 (1.6-1.8) for parents that read and comment on this posting.  Please be sure to identify yourself and your child so that I can record the extra credit properly.  The comment must be posted by Monday at 11:59 P.M. to be accepted.

In His Name,

Jesus T. Pena, M.Ed.
