Special Assembly For Grades 4-8

Many thanks to Greg Mead of the Strength Team for speaking to our 4th-8th grade students today about the dangers of drugs and drinking, and the importance of having a relationship with Christ!

Eagles Win! Eagles Win!

Congratulations to both of our boys teams as they swept Providence Christian School tonight. The jv boys are having a great year and have talent that could really make them a contender when they move to varsity. The varsity boys got off to a fast start led by the play of Will Perri. After falling behind, a fourth quarter comeback was led by Tristian Upton, Tommy Dean and two three-pointers from Jordan Bergmann.

Congratulations Academic Standouts

About five years ago, Bishop Verot High School started the Father Hudgins Scholarship for incoming qualifying freshman. Eighth graders from FMCS, St. Andrews, St. Michaels, and St. Francis who scored in the 90th% overall or above in reading and/or math on their 7th grade SAT's qualify to take their scholarship test.

The test is the PSAT - as in the test juniors in high school will take!

On Wednesday, Verot met with four of our students who qualified: Arianna Bergmann, Remy Fenelus, Taylor Lowry and Robin Mitchell.

Students have to obtain a certain score on the reading, writing and math sections to qualify for a scholarship. If they score above a 50 in any one of the three areas, they will receive a $500 Verot Scholarship; two areas, $1000; and all three areas, $1500.

Congratulations to 8th graders:

- Robin Mitchell, Silver medalist, $1000 Verot Scholarship

Taylor Lowry, Bronze medalist, $500 Verot Scholarship

All of the scholars from the four schools will be honored at Verot's Open House Tuesday, January 25th at 7pm.

First to 100!

Congratulations to 4th grader, Meghan Kline - the first FMCS student this year to reach 100 objectives in Accelerated Math!

Gingerbread Houses Help Gabriel House

From Mrs. Tuma: The 3rd grade class would like to thank everyone who helped out with the Gingerbread Houses. They were a huge success and it would not have been possible without so many of you. We are so excited to report that we raised $350 for The Gabriel House! We prayed and hoped that we would be able to bless them, but never did we imagine the blessing would be this large. The 3rd graders and I can’t thank you enough for your help in reaching out to an amazing organization right here in our community. Have a Merry Christmas! (Students pictured with Mr. Ed Ravish, co-founder of the Gabriel House)
