RELIGION:

We will begin Ch. 8 on 1/14.  As I mentioned in the beginning of the year, Ch. 7,8 and 9 of our Religion text is about church history and these chapters require students to spend additonal time studying.

BISHOP HENDRICKEN PARTNERSHIP:  I received word from the English Dept. Chair at Hendricken that we will probably be taking the 8th grade students over to sit in on a Freshman English class some time in February.  They are busy with preparing for exams at this time.  Also, once again I have been asked by the BHHS English Dept. to arrange for a guest speaker from the Holocaust Ctr.. in Providence to visit Hendricken along with our Gr. 7 and 8 students some time in late March or early April.  Once again this is a great opportunity for our students as Middle School, Gr. 6,7 and 8 will begin the Holocaust book units some time in February.  More information to follow.

Have a great weekend!!!
