SCRIP: It's the easiest way to raise funds for SJA - our school
will earn money through your normal shopping habits! In order to earn
the money, you must register your grocery, debit and/or credit cards.
It only takes a few minutes. Please see the "Scrip" flyer
for instructions. Of course, there's a contest involved! So, the
first class to reach 100% participation in registering cards wins an
ice-cream sundae party. Simply refer to the Scrip flyer, register your
cards, print out the flyer, sign it, and turn it into the office no
later than Wednesday, October 5th. You will not get credit for
registering your cards unless you turn in the flyer!

How can we fit it all in??Time Management In science this week, we focused on time management. We started with a list of all
the things we have to do and want to do. From that we created a daily planner and then a 5 day weekly planner. Students are currently living with their planner.
It is very important in helping them create a schedule that will work for them asthey start the new school year! See link Time Management to learn more.************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
