Happy birthday, Cornelia Connelly!
Last Friday, we celebrated the birthday of Cornelia Connelly, the foundress of the Society of the Holy Child Jesus who began our schools. Mrs. Goyer challenged us to "Be like Cornelia" and live the motto "Actions, not words." We even sang happy birthday to Cornelia. You can view the video here.
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
We have been learning about Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and all he did for our country. The boys and girls learned about justice and all they can do to create a beloved community where we can all learn to take care of one another. The EC teachers led a special prayer service to celebrate and honor Dr. King.
Let it snow!
What do you do when it starts snowing while you're in school? You go outside and try to catch snowflakes of course!
