Since we will be away for 3 weeks, I would like you to give the heads up about some materials I am sending home with the intention that they are returned April 6th.

Religion Duo tang - I have attached stickers at the back of each Religion duo tang for students to use when they complete their daily promise each day of Lent.  Please encourage your child each morning to begin the day by reading the daily promise.  When it has been completed, put a sticker on that day.  (I explained that if for some reason a task/goal wasn't completed on a given day, they could do it on another day as well).
