de la bondad de Dios,
ahí cada fracaso desaparecerá

convertirá en amor.

Sincere thanks to all of the parishioners who help tidy up
the church after Mass (raising up the kneelers, straightening the missalettes) to get it ready for the next Mass. We all
appreciate entering church for Mass and finding the church

missalettes to their original positions. Thank you!

SANTA CRUZ CATHOLIC SCHOOL/ESCUELA CATOLICA
News from the Principal’s Desk
Noticias del Escritorio de la Directora
This past Monday, Columbus Day, while our students enjoyed
their Fall Break, the teachers and I journeyed to the Mayborn
Convention Center in Temple, Texas for our annual Diocesan
Teacher Institute. We had a very informative day as the presenter,
LeAnn Nickelsen, presented a workshop on the topic of formative
assessment. As the year continues, our Santa Cruz teachers will
focus on this topic and create formative assessments to use in
their classrooms. The data presented emphasized the importance
of using formative assessments in daily instruction to
drive student learning and increase student achievement. It was a really good day!
On Friday, October 30th, we will celebrate our 3rd
Annual All Saints’ Day Festival. The students will
come to school as their favorite saints and every class
has a special project to do about their saints. After
Mass and our All Saints’ Day Parade, the classes
will take turns visiting “Heaven” and enjoying this
special day.
Have a blessed week,
Mrs. Flanagan

Este lunes pasado, Día de la Raza, mientras que nuestros alumnos disfrutaron de un día de descanso, los maestros y yo viajamos al Centro de Convenciones de Mayborn en Temple, Texas para nuestro Instituto Diocesano
anual del Maestro. Tuvimos un día muy informativo con la presentación de,
LeAnn Nickelsen, quien dio un taller sobre el tema de evaluación formativa.
Al continuar el año escolar, nuestros maestros de Santa Cruz se centrarán en
este tema y crearan las evaluaciones formativas para utilizar en sus clases.
Los datos presentados destacaron la importancia de utilizar las evaluaciones
formativas diariamente para conducir el aprendizaje de los
estudiantes y aumentar el logro estudiantil. ¡Fue un día muy
beneficioso!
El viernes, 30 de octubre, celebraremos el 3er Festival anual
de Todos los Santos. Los estudiantes vendrán a la escuela vestidos como sus santos favoritos y cada clase tendrá un proyecto
especial por hacer con sus santos. Después de la Santa Misa
y del desfile de Todos los Santos, las clases se turnaran para
visitar “El Cielo” y disfrutar de este día tan especial.
Bendiciones,
