From the Desk of the Principal

Can you believe that we are entering our last week of school? It seems like just yesterday we were kicking off the school year. Today, our students will be attending the Chinooks game for Education Day. The Lakeshore Chinooks will take on the Kenosha Kingfish. Prior to the game, our teachers and students can take part in a pre-game parade around the field. Afterwards, Discovery World will be putting on a pre-game experiment and program on the field. We are praying for good weather! Special thanks to the Home & School Association parents for agreeing to fund the trip for our students and staff. This week our 6th graders will take charge of planning the last Mass of the year on Tuesday, June 6th. On Tuesday night they will join our 5k students for a promotion ceremony starting at 6:30 pm in the St. Rose Chapel. All are invited. I would like to thank the entire Divine Savior Parish and School staff for all of their hard work and support this past year. I would also like to thank all of the families who help to support the school in countless ways. We certainly are better when we are all working together toward the common goal and mission of the school. I hope you all have a safe and relaxing summer and we will see you in the fall! Yours in Faith- Lynn Sauer

MOVIES WITH MEANING: The next movie on June 6 at 6:00 p.m. in the OLL Community Room is We Are Marshall. Based on a true story. “Football is a game that knocks you down, then expects you to get back up. Life hit the West Virginia town of Huntington and its Marshall University even harder. When it did, Jack Lengyel came by to help pull them onto their feet by taking the job no one wanted: rebuilding the Marshall football program only months after a plane crash wiped out Marshall’s beloved Thundering Herd. Matthew McConaughey portrays Lengyel, the energetic, compassionate coach of inexperienced players whose chances of victory are slim and none. They’ll go with the slim. And as they do, their true-life story of heart, healing and football will thrill and inspire you. It’s game day. Time to play till the whistle blows.” (from movie case). 131 minutes. PG. Bring your own snacks.

WHEN TO KEEP YOUR CHILD HOME: Parents must use their best judgement and common sense when making the decision about when to keep a child home. Sick children belong at home. Well children belong at school.
