First Day of School

Praise God for an amazing first day of school!  We started our day with praises and prayers - what is so awesome is that many of our prayers from the end of last school year have been answered.  We also shared what we did this past summer, starting learning our new theme song for the year https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NgGKs_kxPkU, went over school policies, had blueberries and whipped cream for a snack, decorated our writer's notebook and talked about what the acronym CHERISH means.  Please ask your student what the C means.

Your student went home with a "take home" folder that had some papers in it - some needed to be signed and returned.  Please send the folder back to school every day.

Please continue to pray daily for Daystar - students, teachers, board members and supporters. Thank you!

Our quote for today (each day the 5th - 7th graders need to write down in their reading notebooks and bring back) is from Sydney Harris,  "The whole purpose of education is to turn mirrors into windows."
