Meet Day!!

The Nikes are ready to compete at the New London Tournament today!

Our Notre Dame students celebrated Fulton Sheen's Beatification Day in many ways! We began the day by being greeted at the door by Venerable Fulton Sheen, then praying The Our Father with him (his voice!) Each period of the day began with a different fact about his life, from his birth near Peoria, IL to his Emmy Award winning television series "A Life Worth Living," which reached an estimated 30 million viewers each week. Students also prayed The World Mission Rosary, which he introduced in 1951. Our 7th grade was able to watch the acclamation during the Beatification Mass, as he was proclaimed "Blessed." They then excitedly flipped his sign from Venerable to Blessed! Blessed Fulton J. Sheen, pray for us!

Please consider buying or selling candy bars to support your BND PTO!

Both first grade classes went on a field trip today to Starr's Cave. Miss Shania took us on a hike. We looked for different colors while we where hiking. We got rained on, but we were prepared! We also got to explore the animals and exhibits in the Nature Center. 2nd group of photos

Last week third graders at Notre Dame were able to travel to Starr’s cave to complete their fossils unit in science. Students were able to take a hike and see some rocks that had fossils in them. They made nature journals, explored the nature center and even had time to see some live animals.

Last week, Wednesday and Thursday, Grades 4 and 5 travelled to Sts. Mary and Patrick, Our Lady of Grace Grotto. There, they sketched "en plein air," or outside/on location.Then they visited the Murray Art Gallery at SCC to see artwork made in last month's Art 319 En Plein Air art competition.
