It's "TUESDAY CHOOSEDAY" at SKD! How can you CHOOSE to live out the virtues today?
Our Kindergarten & 6th Grade Buddies are preparing for November by completing a saint research project together. Throughout the month, all of the classes will be learning about, honoring, and celebrating our Heavenly Heroes.
Reminder that tomorrow morning (10/16) is 'Pastries with Parents'. Students and their families are invited to join us for fellowship and donuts anytime between 7:00am-7:40am in the school gym. Students must be accompanied by an adult and regular morning supervision will begin at 7:30am on the playground.
📚 Big beginnings start with little moments!
A story shared, a song sung, and a new word discovered all help build the foundation for learning. Preschool gives children opportunities to grow their language skills and explore letters and numbers through play.
Discover what that beginning could look like for your child at Bishop O’Gorman Catholic Schools. 💙
Join us for a Preschool Information Session!
Nov 9: St. Michael Elementary
Nov 10: Holy Spirit Elementary
Nov 16: St. Katharine Drexel Elementary
Nov 17: St. Lambert Elementary
Nov 19: St. Mary Elementary

🌱 Garden Club in After School Care!
We are excited to offer a Garden Club for After School Care students in Grades 1–6!
Our Garden Club curriculum, Grow Getters, comes from South Dakota State University (SDSU) and provides engaging, hands-on garden-based learning. Students will explore a variety of topics through science, nutrition, literacy, and physical activities, including:
🌱 South Dakota fruits and vegetables
🌱 Seeds and soils
🌱 Pollinators
🌱 Growing and caring for plants
🌱 Harvesting garden produce
When weather permits, students may also take their learning outside for hands-on garden activities.
Thank you to Mrs. Sheri for bringing the Garden Club to SKD. We are excited to give our students the opportunity to learn, explore, and grow!

🔭 October's Virtue of the Month: Foresight
Foresight is the virtue of thinking ahead and making wise choices today for a better tomorrow.
Whether in the classroom, on the field, or at home, we grow in foresight when we consider the consequences of our actions and seek God’s guidance in our decisions.
We had our Walk In Virtue today! The students enjoyed being outside and eating freeze pops, and we are so grateful for the parents and family who joined us in our walk. We will announce our total amount raised in the next week, but for now, check out this little video to see all the fun your kiddos had this afternoon! 🌞

Yesterday, the 1st Graders had beautiful weather in order for them to measure their shadows and observe how the sun moved throughout the afternoon.
Our 6th Graders "left their mark" today on the HANDS ON LEARNING wall. At the end of the year, they will get to sign their name by their handprint before leaving us for OGJH.
Don't forget to wear jammies to school tomorrow (9/14)!
