Why a Catholic Education Matters
A Catholic Education creates a community, not as a
concept to be taught but to be lived. Students learn to
understand the value of their community as they
experience acceptance, trust, and respect. It is a
complete education with the ideals of trust, faith,
understanding and compassion.

As a graduate of St. Joseph School, Notre Dame High School, and
D’Youville College I feel blessed to have had the
opportunity for a Catholic Education. It is so rewarding to
be able to add God to every subject in our curriculum.

Second Grade News

Students will continue to go on adventures through the
SuperKids curriculum for English Language Arts. In Math
we will be focusing on adding and subtracting with the
ultimate goal of being able to add and subtract with
numbers within 1,000. Time, money, using data, and
fractions will all be introduced as well as the foundations of
multiplication and division.

The units in Social Studies will introduce students to the
importance of their community, their state, and their
country. Topics such as active citizenship, geography of
communities, and changes and interdependence between
different communities will all be addressed.

Interdependence in ecosystems, Earth’s features, and
matter will be focused on in science. In Religion, we will
focus on preparing for the sacrament of reconciliation.
Students will do this through learning how God gives us
life and love, how Jesus calls us to give ourselves in love,
remembering that Jesus gave us the gift of peace and the
gift of himself.

I am eager to get back into the classroom to meet and
enjoy my new class. I can’t wait to see you!

As always, feel free to email me if you have any questions
or concerns.  I also use "DoJo" as my means of
communication connecting you to my classroom.
