The PreK had fun this week with their new flower arranging center! They also worked hard finishing up their awesome graphs!

The 1st grade students were treated to a visit with some special friends this past Thursday. Alum, Alex Ceron and a few of his classmates from HHIHS completed a service project working with the students.

Also if you haven't heard, 1st grade is learning how to count money! This week they had a hands on math activity in which students had to rotate to each desk count out the money amount printed on their card, have it checked for correctness, and move to the next. They did really well!

The 7th grade had a poetry explication this week. Students analyzed the elements of poetry and performed an interpretation of their poem.

All students were treated with a visit from Msgr. Gaston who was leading the Parish's Lenten Mission this year. Thank you Msgr. Gaston!

“Irish History through Mythology- Heroes and Heroines”

Sixteen JPII juniors have been recognized for their participation in the nationwide writing contest sponsored by the Ladies Ancient Order of Hibernians (LAOH).

Cheryl Daniels, president of the LAOH, presented the 16 JPII winners and participants of the junior class with certificates and announced those receiving special recognitions. “I admire the time, talent and dedication that it takes to submit these compositions and it is days like this that make it all worthwhile for me to present these recognitions, and a check,” she said. The LAOH intuited the writing contest to help younger generations learn about Irish history, culture and traditions that may be lost as each older generation passes on.

The essay submissions came from teacher Bill Damude’s history class. “I initially asked the kids to participate two years ago because the Hibernians have been such big supporters of the school,” said Mr. Damude. “As our students continue to do so well, I am impressed that, not only do they enjoy the subject matter and its historical value but are creating well-written essays with great insight.”

Congratulation to the following students:

1st Place – Megan Shaw, $200

2nd Place – Molly Rembold, $100

3rd Place – Alena Durel, $50

4th Place – Abby Quinty, $25

5th Place – Gianna Torinese, $25

6th Place – Katie Leigh Floyd, $25

7th Place – Ethan Prodo, $25

Honorable Mention: Noah Brock, McKenna Byrne, Renee Delgado, T’kai DeVore, Raymond Johnson, Mark Martle, Derek Medina, Khushi Patel, and Merritt Woodham
