Dear Parents:
Lenten Prayer
Dear Jesus,
Help us through Lent and to keep our sacrifice. Help us to be
more like you during Lent, and when we fall, help us get back up and
keep going. You died for us to keep us free from sin. Help
us to do what you want us to do. Amen.
Nicholas Cronin and Jackson
Polverari, Grade 4

1. ACADEMIC
DECATHLON: This past
Saturday our Academic Decathlon team competed in the California
Catholic School Academic Junior High Decathlon. Our results were
very exciting! Nativity School
received a medal for winning Third Place in the Super Quiz. In
the individual subject areas, Olivia Stone received Second Place in
Religion and Gabrielle Filloux
received Second Place in Fine Arts. Our
Decathletes worked very hard and should be congratulated for their hard
work. We would like to thank all of their coaches: Dr.
McDonald, Mr. Hickam, Miss Myall, Miss Olcese, Deacon Dominick Peloso
and
parents for their guidance. We would also like to thank Ace of
Sandwiches for providing lunch to the team on Saturday.
