DIVINE SAVIOR CATHOLIC SCHOOL DIVINE DISPATCH

January 15, 2018

The Mission of Divine Savior Catholic School is to provide an environment for children to excel personally, academically and spiritually. Together we share in the mission of Divine Savior Parish to foster a faith filled community where Catholic values are learned through prayer, service and love. Our goal is to use these values to develop lifelong learners and compassionate leaders.

From the Desk of the Principal

It is difficult to believe that half of our school year is already over! This Thursday is the end of our 2nd quarter. Our teachers will be working hard on student assessments and preparing feedback for our students and parents. Report cards will go home on Monday, January 29th.

This Friday our students will be off of school, but the teachers will be hard at work. We have been working on identifying our standards, building the DSCS curriculum and moving toward unit planning and backwards design. Our ultimate goal is to more closely align our instruction with our standards and eventually make the move to standards based grading.

Have a great week!

Yours in Faith, Principal Lynn Sauer

Intruder Drill: This week Thursday we will be conducting an intruder alert practice. Each classroom will practice their lock down procedure. These drills are not meant to scare anyone. We practice so that we are prepared in case of an emergency- much like our fire and tornado drills.

Yours in Faith, Principal Lynn Sauer
