Kindergarten Update

Dear Parents, February 14,2020

We hope that our weekly progress reports will help to keep you better informed about your child’s daily work habits and behavior at school. We are asking for your assistance in helping students make good choices and to understand the consequences of their behavior.Your assistance in this matter is crucial. When parents and teachers work together, children can be successful.

The Diocese of Oakland holds a yearly Arts Festival at Bishop O’Dowd High School. The Festival this year will be on Sunday, February 23rd., This event showcases the visual and performing arts of the elementary and high school students of the Diocese of Oakland.

Mrs. Romero, our Art teacher will send a flyer next week detailing the art that will be displayed. If you’ve never been to this festival, it is a wonderful experience! Your child will have the opportunity to have their art displayed each year at the festival.

Our Super Kid this week is Keira.

What Our Families are Saying

"The supportive teachers at SPN played a big role in preparing me for high school and helping me understand what to expect. They encouraged me to ask questions and seek help when needed, which made me more confident in my learning. Thanks to them, I entered freshman year already familiar with many concepts and effective study habits that have helped me stay on top of my work. SPN also taught me valuable life skills that I still use today, helping me succeed academically, build strong friendships, and maintain my overall well-being."

— Tibby Horvath, SPN Class of 2022

"We are very satisfied with the SPN community, something that is important to our family. My children feel safe and comfortable with SPN. Our family feels connected with the SPN community from parents and families to the staff and faculty. My children and we as parents have made healthy and positive relationships with other families from school. We share time outside of school with other families which brings a level of connectedness I don't know if we would have elsewhere"

— SPN Parent

"My children are experiencing community in other ways than just friends and playdates. Faith Families is an example of community, interacting with students from all grade levels, and learning and creating for others outside of SPN. Field trips to Kids Against Hunger or the Alameda Food Bank where they work and see firsthand how their efforts help others less fortunate, for those who are in need of support. Community is not just our SPN ‘bubble,’ and that is what SPN demonstrates and provides– opportunity to explore a bigger community."
