Hello all.  We are coming up on the end of the 8th grade year.  May looks to be very busy.  One of our events is Mission Day where we are collecting items for two different groups.  We have New Cassel Retirement home that we are collecting hygiene supplies for residents.  We are also collecting items for the group Omaha Welcomes the Stranger.  We have selected to support six students in grades 8-12.

If you would like to support our mission and would like to send hygiene supplies or other items an 8th – senior might enjoy having for the summer please feel to send them to SPSL before May 1st.

I’m also including a link to our Amazon Wishlist to make shopping even easier.  https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/29IUCAAE303V6?ref_=wl_share

Thank you

Mrs. Jaros and 8D

What a busy Catholic Schools Week for 8D.  On Monday we were entertained with some amazing music and dancing.  Tuesday, half of the class was able to celebrate mass with their family at St. Pius X and enjoyed donuts after.  Wednesday, the other half of the students were able to ride the bus to celebrate mass with their families at St. Leo the Great and also enjoyed donuts.  What a fun time.

Looking forward to the rest of the week.  Thursday the students are going to celebrate mass with all the other 8th grade Catholic Schools at St. Cecilia’s.  I’m sure we will have a great time.  Friday the drama students are showing off their talents by performing Willy Wonka for us.  I can’t wait to see it because they always do a wonderful job.

8D is eagerly awaiting Christmas.  We couldn’t be more excited to spend time with our 2nd grade buddies and celebrate the Jesus together.  The 8th grade teachers are starting to make plans for graduation!

High school placement exams are right around the corner.  8th grade math will be doing some practice activities to prepare.  We will also be moving forward in our algebra books.

7th grade is preparing to take percentages in the coming months.  It should be an exciting time of learning new skills.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Mrs. Jaros

It’s spooky season in 8D.  All grade levels have been hard at work increasing their math skills.

7th graders are working with fractions and decimals and currently taking on scientific notation.

8th graders are working on Order of Operations and getting ready to take on word problems with the use of charts.

We are have a lot of fun in homeroom too.  We are journaling daily and working on our problem solving skills thanks to Wordle.

Have a fun and safe Halloween.

Mrs. Jaros

Hello families!

What a busy time of year.  The 8th graders are anxiously awaiting graduation and preparing to be high schoolers.   I think I may be the only one who isn’t ready for May.

Currently 7th and 8th grade math classes are review Algebra concepts to prepare for next year.  As always, please reach out with any questions.

Mrs. Jaros

Hello families.  Happy Catholic Schools Week!  It’s been a busy January in 8th grade.  Most currently we are excited to watch our classmates perform in the school play this week.  The students have been working so diligently to prepare an awesome show for everyone.

The students and I are patiently waiting for Valentine’s Day.  We had the opportunity to make Valentine cards for our 2nd grade partners this week.  We also had the pleasure of joining them for board game fun this week.   Another exciting opportunity we were given this week was to attend an all city 8th grade mass.

We have a field trips coming up this month which should be very exciting please watch for permission slips.  Have a great month and as always if you need anything please let me know.

It’s been a busy few months in 8D.  Both 7th and 8th grade math are moving through their units with great success.  Our big push for the next couple of months will be organization skills as well as more math practice.

8d homeroom was happy to welcome their 2nd grade buddies and looks forward to spending more time with them in the future.  We are all looking forward to the Holidays.

Hello Students and Families!

Welcome to the new school year.  I’m very excited to start this journey to Junior High math with you. I look forward to getting to know everyone and growing together.

If you have any questions or concerns please reach out to me.
