Weeks 15-16 (Thanksgiving Break)

Thanksgiving Blessings to Your Family!
Prayers for a relaxing Thanksgiving with plenty of time reflecting on all the blessings God showers upon us.  I know my thankful list is quite long!  I am thankful for each of my students and the great year we have had so far, I look forward to what God has planned for our class in 2016.  I can't believe we will come back to school and it will be December... Advent services, Christmas, and new years are just around the corner.  God is good and we are BLESSED TO SERVE!

Advent Services:
As we await the coming of our Savior we spent each year worshiping through Advent services.  Zion's Advent services start 12/2 please join our school worship at 10am or Zion's evening service at 7pm.

Science Plant Dissection
Positive reports from Mrs. Murray about the 7th grade flower dissection!  The students had fun using all the science lab equipment and learned about flower parts along the way.














Successful Thanksgiving Food Drive & Delivery to the St. Louis Seminary:
Student Council delivered 20 Thanksgiving dinner boxes and two car loads of food to the Seminary food bank Friday the 20th.  I love seeing students live out their servanthood, it makes me very proud to say they are my students.  This project wouldn't have been possible without every students and family who donated items at last Wednesday's chapel.  THANK YOU! 










 Jr. High Dance Friday, Dec. 4 hosted by STUCO:
Comics & Super Heroes
Time:  7-9:30 p.m. in Zion’s commons  (Please don’t arrive early and plan to pick up promptly)
Cost:  TBA - Usually around $5-6 which covers DJ expenses and snacks.  No extra money needed besides admission.
Dress:  CASUAL - we’re talking jeans and appropriate T-shirts or tops.  Please help your child make a wise decision here.  Students may dress up like a super hero or favorite comic character to play along with the dance theme, but this is not required.
Parents - what to expect?  A lot of standing around and visiting in herds. Many kids are dancing by the end of the night. This is an old fashioned “mixer” activity that helps kids get used to socializing in a new way.
