St. Joseph Catholic School

MYSTERY READER: Third graders enjoyed Mrs. Austin as their mystery reader. This book, "Giraffes Can’t Dance," is Mrs. Austin’s favorite book and was part of our book tournament. Which book is going to win?

MIXING MATH, MEASUREMENTS & MINISTRY: To connect our math units on measurement and fractions with a meaningful act of service, the 4th graders spent time in the kitchen on Monday, baking cookies for the St. Joseph Feast Day Mass. As we measured, mixed, and worked together, we were reminded that even our classroom learning can be used to serve others and give glory to God.

These cookies, along with other desserts, will be shared with parishioners after Mass as a small token of our gratitude. Our students are truly thankful for the love, prayers, and unwavering support our parish community continues to show our school. It is a blessing for our children to grow, learn, and celebrate our faith surrounded by such a caring parish family.

WHO NEEDS A POT OF GOLD, when you have such cute little leprechauns? Happy St. Patrick's Day!

MYSTERY READER: Fr. Brett was the mystery reader today in Ms. Austin's classroom, sharing the book "I'm a Saint in the Making." We are all called to be saints, and our students are learning how to do just that by performing simple acts of prayer, service and love.

WHO'S THE SKINNY ONE IN THE BACK? Our 2nd graders were blessed with a field trip to the University of Michigan Museum of Natural History. It's a gift to learn more about this amazing world God created for us!

SAINTS IN THE MAKING - we are all called to be saints! Our 3rd graders created saint reports about some of the well-known saints to share their stories and strive to be like them!
