Remote and Homestudy: See the Newletter below for each grade to be able to download the materials you need.
Books are still in shipping limbo..no pun intended. So we are utilizing digital and paper copies as we have access to them. Once we get books in, I'll be sure to contact Homestudy and remote learners.
October brings us some favorite feast days and special observances. Added to the magical Fall colors, this is truly a time to connect with God through the beauty of Creation. I wish that for each and every one of you!
Many Blessings,
Jennifer Abdalla
