Veritas Academy | ClassroomBlog

WOW!!!How time has flown this year.  I have thoroughly enjoyed working with and teaching your children this year.  I hope they will remember the academics but more than that I hope they remember the most important thing to learn(more important than academics)is to learn to obey; if children don’t learn to obey their human authority whom they can see, feel, and touch, they’ll never learn to obey God, our Heavenly Father and Authority, whom they obviously cannot see, feel, or touch. And, of course, when we come to the end of our lives, the only thing that is going to matter is our relationship with Jesus Christ.  I’ve emphasized an old adage I grew up  hearing constantly:  I AM NOW BECOMING WHAT I WILL BE. Bad habits we learn in our youth will not change because of age.

The orange folders I send on Fridays DO NOT RETURN this time.

Monday: we will do some class work and finish a couple of our books; we will have a ball game at 1:15.Your child may wear Veritas T-shirt; jeans/shorts—may need to bring sunscreen and bottled water.  Parents are welcome to come. No uniform required.

Tuesday: we will have Field Day.  Our class will participate from 9 until noon; if your child stays all day, we suggest you send a change of clothes because of the water games they’ll be playing and a towel, bottled water, and sunscreen.   If you come,too, they can leave at noon if you wish.  If they stay all day, we will go back to our room until dismissal time at 2:30. No uniform required.I will send home test folders on Tuesday as usual BUT DO NOT RETURN.

Wednesday: we will have awards assembly/6th grade graduation at 9:00.  Every first grader will received AT LEAST one award. Uniform required.

Thursday: Uniform required.  Regular school day.  Your child will bring home all of his/her supplies,etc. Please do not send anything with them on Friday.

Friday: Party day and report cards will be issued at noon at the dismissal time.   DO NOT SEND SNACKS,LUNCHES,BOOK BAGS,ETC.    Your child will have PLENTY to eat at our party.

Thanks for allowing me to teach your child.  Look forward to seeing you next year at Veritas on occasion when you’re there to pick up your child, etc.
