St. Paul Lutheran School

Friday was Race Day — the end of our Race for Education fundraiser. In lieu of selling items, students wrote letters to friends and family asking for a donation to the school. More than $20,000 has been donated, resulting in our principal completing the “ice bucket challenge” during a pep rally to kick off the day. Despite brisk winds and cool temperatures, a good time was had by all! Special thanks to parent volunteer Deb Guenterberg for organizing the fundraiser each year.

This week marks the end of the first-quarter grading period. This year we are going paperless, and parents will view report cards online through our secure school information system. We have had the capability to use technology to keep parents informed of grades on a daily basis for several years now and have slowly been moving toward becoming better stewards of our resources. Cutting down on paper is one way that we can be wiser and more cost-efficient.

The community is invited to St. Paul Lutheran School, 240 E. Green Bay St., Saturday for the SPYRT youth group’s annual craft sale, silent auction and lunch. The event runs from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and includes a variety of vendors and a bake sale.

Olga Brener Intermediate School

The fourth-grade classes enjoyed a visit from Len Pubanz during their geometry unit. He reviewed angles and symmetry with the students, and then they applied that knowledge in constructing a puzzle that is over 6 feet tall. Teachers and students thoroughly enjoyed the lesson. The next step will be for students to check out a mini version of the puzzle, take it home and teach someone else how to complete it.

Upcoming: Nov. 10-14, book fair; Nov. 11, Thanksgiving feast; Nov. 13, PTO meeting at 6 p.m.; Nov. 21, half day; Nov. 26, half day; Nov. 27 and 28, no school.

Gresham Community School

Representatives of Gresham FFA attended the National FFA Convention in Louisville, Kentucky, last week. Members went on tours, including Miller Park and Palermos Pizza, on the way to the convention. They also attended sessions and listened to motivational speakers.

Gresham School was honored Oct. 30 for the fifth year in a row for having both schools test proficient or advanced in WKCE testing. The high school was also awarded a special flag for five consecutive years as a Title 1 School of Recognition. The students were rewarded with an afternoon of games and movies.

We also had a Halloween celebration on Thursday.
