Hello Friends!

Due to the Thanksgiving Holiday there will be no homework this week.  Please take this time to read or spend time together as a family.

We will be having a math test on Chapter 3 tomorrow.  Students should review chapter 3.  If your student has any questions, please do not hesitate to contact their homeroom teacher. 

There is a half of day this Wednesday!  Students will not need a lunch, but please remember to pack a snack. 

This Saturday is Nativity's 60th anniversary celebration.  All are invited to attend mass and a reception immediately following.  The school will be open for visitors!  Come by and visit our classrooms.  

As we approachThanksgiving, we wanted to take this time to thank you all for all that you do.  We count you all in our blessings and are very thankful for our Nativity family. 

May you all have a nice week and a very blessed and happy Thanksgiving.
