See my class calendar on my website.

7^th Grade

Students were assigned an extra credit assignment in February for ELA. This assignment will be due March 12^th. Since this is right before Spring Break, I will be unable to accept any late projects. We are currently studying adverbs and will have our Adverb Test on March 23^rd.  The next unit we will cover in ELA will be adjectives.

We have finished reading TheWesting Game, and students were given a choice of three essays to complete. These will be competed during class time. Students will turn in a rough draft March 12^th and a final copy will be due March 29^th. Please continue to check my website for important test and project due dates.

8^th Grade

We have just finished reading A Raisin in the Sun and have turned in rough drafts of our essay. We will read the short story “A Monkey’s Paw” and then begin our Holocaust unit. Students will be assigned specific topics of the Holocaust in which they will be producing lessons and teaching the class. This will take us several weeks to research and deliver lessons. Students will work in groups and will be given specific instructions the upcoming weeks. Please continue to check my website for important test and project due dates.

• Welcome Saints

  

  Welcome to the parents' online newsletter for St. Elizabeth of Hungary Catholic School. Published monthly from September to June, this is the place to read all the updates from our teachers, school administrators, and organizations.

• Mission Statement

  Our mission at St. Elizabeth of Hungary Catholic School is to serve God through our ministry of educational excellence and to develop the spiritual lives of our youth within the framework of the Gospel and the tradition of the Catholic Church.

• Philosophy

  Our fundamental task is the education of the whole child, combining learning with faith, Catholic doctrines and moral teachings. We strive to instill in our students a lifelong commitment to learning, to Christian values and citizenship, and like our patroness, to community service. We are dedicated to achieving these goals within a supportive and diverse Christian community and to living our faith daily with the understanding that education is a process that never ends.
