Pre-K4 B enjoyed their “Charlie Brown Thanksgiving” feast this week!  The students prayed together, and took turns talking about what each of them is thankful for. 🍞 🥨 
The students learned about the very first Thanksgiving, appreciation, and thankfulness this month.❤️
Thank you to our Mrs. Staskiel for her help with the pretzels! 😉🦃
Happy Thanksgiving from Pre-K4 B!

The students in our Individualized Instruction program are filled with gratitude!

During their adapted computer class, they learned how to download, save, and name a file. Then, after reflecting, students typed names of things and people for whom they are very thankful.

Their creativity came alive when they added color to their turkey in the Paint program. Finally, students inserted their new PNG file to create these wonderful masterpieces! How hard-working these students are!!

On Monday, the Individualized Instruction program hosted their annual Thanksgiving feast. Students were asked to bring in their favorite food/snack, and share it with their friends. As a group, students also made a fruit cornucopia in an ice cream cone. We look forward to this event each year because it is so much fun!

Students in Kindergarten C discussed what it means to be thankful. They shared what they are thankful for, learned ways to show appreciation, and created their very own thankful bracelets! Everyone did an amazing job!

“Where’s your library book?”  
… is probably a question heard by many students each week as they prepare for class!
A 1975 graduate of Bishop O'Reilly High School, Greg Krench, returned his library book to the building after having it for 50 years. Thanks to his wife, Lori, and his friend Bernie Derby for a chuckle this morning.
Greg reported straight to the principal’s office to return his book!  
Just imagine how much that fine would be for his overdue library book! 
Happy Tuesday Guardians!

Meet The Players Night was electric!     
Our cheerleaders brought the energy to the court and the passion in our players eyes was high as all Guardian teams were announced!   
Student-athletes got to hear from guest speaker, Dave Popson, former NBA player who attended Bishop O’Reilly High School and played on the same court as they do now.
Special thanks goes to Danielle Petros Image Effects and Photography who captured over 1,000 photos that night!

PK 4A voted in its own presidential election in class. The children secretly filled out their ballots and dropped them into an election box. They also voted for their favorite cookie with Oreos receiving 9 votes and Chocolate Chip receiving 8 votes. They definitely enjoyed the cookie taste test!   
The children learned that is a privilege and duty for all Americans to vote.  
We are proud to be Americans.
God Bless the USA !
