Congratulations to Olga Tutevich, our Spirit Award winner for this week. Olga is kind, helpful, and cooperative. She is a hard worker and brings joy to our school.

Thank you to all who attended Open House and the first PTL meeting of the year. PTL voted to do the catalog sales fundraiser again this year. Thank you to Mrs. Snyder for heading this up for us. Watch for information soon. We will also be selling discount cards, but will wait until December to sell these. Classes will be putting together theme baskets for a silent auction held during the school Christmas program. Watch for more information on all of these activities.

If your child is in grades 3 through 8, they have the opportunity to perform with their classmates at the Matthewson Center on the fairgrounds on Saturday, October 13th at 10:00 a.m. If your child is unable to participate, you must let Mr. Faaborg or your child's teacher know. Everyone who participates earns extra credit in music class! The benefits are that your child will have an opportunity to perform as part of a group and most importantly to share a gospel message with the community.

We will be dismissing at noon (following lunch) on Friday, September 28th. Child care will be available for the afternoon. 

Come out to watch our volleyball team play Cole Camp at our home game on September 25th! These young ladies are doing a wonderful job.

The volleyball team is going strong! They play at St. Peter's Catholic School in Marshall this evening at 6:00. They played well against Johnson County Christian Academy at their first home game of the season last week. Thank you to Mr. Weber and Mr. Snyder for running the concession stand.We are also grateful to Mrs. Snyder for taking the door offering for us. The money from these helps support the sports program in many ways. If you are willing to help do either of these things, be sure to talk to Mr. Weber or Mrs. Sprinkle.

Congratulations to Esther Kornev who was given the Spirit Award at chapel services this week. Esther is an 8th grader this year. She is hardworking, happy, and cooperative. We are happy to have her as part of our St. Paul’s family.

The volleyball team played their first game of the season last night against Johnson County Christian Academy. They had a wonderful time, demonstrated good Christian sportsmanship, and had the chance to put some new skills into practice. Least of importance, but certainly fun for them...they won the game.  Congratulations to these girls and coach Sprinkle! Their next game is a home game against Johnson County Christian Academy at 6:00 p.m. on Monday, the 10th.

Chess Club starts next week on Thursday, the 13th, right after school in the cafeteria.The club is open to students in kindergarten through 8th grade. If your child doesn’t know how to play, our seasoned players will be happy to teach them. We appreciate Shane Weber for sponsoring Chess Club.  

The school’s Open House event will be held on September 20th from 5:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. Parents, friends, and extended family members are invited to tour the hallways and classrooms to see what their students have been learning in school. The Open House will be followed by the first Parent/Teacher League meeting of the school year. It begins at 6:00 in the cafeteria.There will be child care in the gym during the PTL meeting provided at no cost by the PTL. Meetings occur in September, November, January, March, and May. Dates are on the school website calendar. This evening will be a great time to meet other parents, visit your child’s classroom, and get involved in the school.

We have an exciting opportunity coming on Saturday, October 13th for band and choir students, grades 3 through 8. The Chamber of Commerce is having an event at the fairgrounds that day and have asked our students to perform. We will let you know details as soon as we have them. You will want to put this date on your calendar. The plan is to try to set it up for mid morning so families have the rest of their Saturday.

There are some telephone poles that edge the playground. A few of them have spikes that need to either be removed or pounded down (sledgehammer?). We also need two pieces of knotted nylon rope replaced in the pyramid climber. If you are able to take on one or both of these projects, please let me know.

Our first staff meeting is September 28th. We will dismiss after lunch that day. Child care will be provided.  Staff will receive some training from an agency in Marshall that tracks Missouri birds. They will help us begin a schoolwide program to help even the youngest students learn to identify our backyard birds. Cynthia Green, our local MO Dept. of Conservation Education Consultant arranged this for us.

Good afternoon,

It has been a great first full week of school. Students are doing well learning and relearning school schedules and expectations. Congratulations to Brooks Heimsoth who was given the Spirit (Fruits of the Spirit) Award at chapel services on Wednesday. Mrs. Brandt nominated Brooks because of the kindness he demonstrates to everyone around him. Brooks is also cooperative and works hard on his assignments. We are so grateful that Brooks is in our school! 

I wanted to give a "heads up" and will get this on the school calendar today, but we will dismiss at 2:00 on October 5th. This is because of Smith-Cotton's homecoming parade. The parade lines up on Massachusetts and some cross streets. We will have our students on the playground no later than 2:00 so that you can get them picked up. We ask that you pick them up promptly so teachers can leave the building too. The parade is usually very fun to watch, but have a plan to escape. It is difficult to get out and by 2:30 it very difficult until the area is mostly cleared by 4:30. We will have child care beginning at 2:00 and provided until 5:30 as usual.

School picture day is September 21st. We will be sending home order packets if you'd like to order. I believe you will be able to order online as well. 

Mrs. Hagan, who sometimes substitutes for us, recently returned from a mission trip to Melowi in Africa. She brought the school back a beautiful gift of a hand carved Noah's Ark filled with animals and of course, Noah. Each classroom will have a day to enjoy the ark, then it will stay in my office until needed for a lesson or a teacher wants to use it. If you'd like to see it, just stop by. I'll set it out for our PTL meeting and Open House on September 20th. It really is a work of art. 

We will be sending home a form for you sign that gives us permission to post a picture/s of your child (or not). I'll get that sent out next week. I will attach it to the announcement and send home a paper copy for you. Until that time if you don't want your child's picture posted, just let me know. I typically post pictures on facebook, especially of Spirit Award winners for the week and a variety of classroom activities. 

You are invited to attend chapel services each Wednesday at 9:00. These are provided by either Pastor Freeman or Pastor Tessone of Our Savior. Pastor Morris Meseke from Faith Lutheran in Warsaw presented chapel services this past Wednesday. He enjoyed teaching the lesson and hearing the children's answers to his questions. We thoroughly enjoyed the service.
