interested in volunteering, please contact Maryclair Thomas or Lisa
Sheeper. We need lots of volunteers for this fun day. Our
students really look forward to this fundraiser for our sports program! |
| 4. LIFETOUCH SPRING PICTURE DAY: Lifetouch photographers will be here on Thursday, April 15, for "Spring Portrait Day." April 15 will be a "free dress" day so students may wear their Easter outfits or choose an outfit that is appropriate. This Spring Portrait Day is new to Nativity. There is no obligation to purchase any of the pictures unless you choose to do so. No payment is required upfront, nothing to fill out. In approximately three weeks you will receive a portrait packet. More information will follow. |

Student Council has been busy planning ways to celebrate our awesome
Earth! For the entire week, hot lunch participants will be using
biodegradable sporks, made from potatoes. Thank you to 8th
grader, Sarah Alvarado, for giving us the idea! Classes will be
competing in a recycling sculpture creation contest, learning "green"
tips everyday at our outdoor morning announcements, learning about the
word Biodegradable, and collecting used eyeglasses for recycling to
those in need (see enclosed flyer). Make Every Day Earth Day! |
