Saying Goodbye

We say goodbye this week to a well loved staff member, Mrs. Blumenschien.  Katie has been our Pre-School aide for the past year and a half, but in that short time has implanted herself in our hearts.  She has been a wonderful asset to our staff, has helped us laugh, has helped countless students learn and grow, and has made a difference at Trinity.  We will miss her tremendously. 

With goodbyes come hellos.  I'd like to welcome Jennifer Mauer to our staff.  God has brought her to us and I know that she will do an amazing job for Trinity.  Please introduce yourself to her and welcome her when you see her around the building.

As always, the rest of our school is busy working, learning, and growing in faith, love and community.  The end of February is upon us.  The school year continues to move at lightening speed and there is no end to how busy we are.  But the kids' unending energy and enthusiasm help us to keep on doing what we do!

Spiritual Parenting Thought of the Day
Make each day a new beginning. Let go of the old definitions you have of your children and see them as the spiritual beings they are today.   

Bible Verse of the Day
Follow God’s example, therefore, as dearly loved children and walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.
– Ephesians 5:1-2 (NIV

FRIDAY!

Wow, what a week!  The beginning of February, Groundhog's Day, the 100th day of school, and pizza Friday!  It's been fun seeing how excited the kids have been all week.  I pray they are able to rest and relax this weekend. 

Your kids have been challenged with a goal.  Ask them how they've been proactive this week.  (Habit #1) 

Enjoy your weekend and the continued nice weather.  God bless!

Spiritual Parenting Thought of the Day:
We choose how to manage our hours. We are always allowed to say “no.” The goal is to have the reserves, structure, and balance in place to be able to say “yes!” to the opportunities that give us joy. 

Bible Verse of the Day:
You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.
– 1 John 4:4 (NIV)
