The students learned five Math Pentathlon board games: Kings and Quadraphages, Hex-A-Gone, Calla, Shape-Up, and Star Track.

Each year, our 7th grade students perform the Living Stations of the Cross for students, staff members, teachers, and family. This year’s event was held on Wednesday, April 12, 2017. The Living Stations are a powerful commemoration of the passion, death, and resurrection of Christ. The live reenactment of the Stations of the Cross is a stirring way to convey Christ’s loving sacrifices to schoolchildren. The 7th grade students practiced throughout Lent for their performance, complete with music and costumes. Seventh graders served as actors and readers. A special thanks to Michele Santillan and Liz Paruch for coordinating the event.
If you missed the performance, we will be posting the entire event this week at www.youtube.com/allsaintscs.
