Last Week In Chapel
We have completed the "Just Do It" series. This week's lesson was on taking up our cross. We learned that we must decide for ourselves that Jesus is Lord. Followers of Jesus have to be willing to do what He wants, not want we want.
Main Focus: Obeying Jesus sometimes comes at a cost.
Power Verse: "....if any of you wants to be my follower, you must give up your own way, take up your cross, and follow me..." Mark 8:34
Whatchagaddaknow: No Matter What It Costs Me, I Will Obey!

Staying Informed and Up-to-date with Classroom Happenings
To stay informed of what’s happening in your child’s classroom, please login into Blackbaud weekly. You will be able to see information such as weekly classroom announcements, upcoming events, weekly academic focus, grades, attendance, etc. This is the key to staying informed and replaces hardcopy newsletters. I encourage you to login each week. Information will be updated each Sunday at 5pm.
Accessing your child's class information weekly:
Login to your Blackbaud account and select your child's name under "Children".
Find your child's homeroom class under the "Progress" tab by scrolling down to where classes are listed.
After selecting the homeroom class, you will see the teacher's main class page where you will locate upcoming dates, class reminders and news.
Select the "Topics" tab to see specific information for each individual subject. Within each subject folder, you will see a plan for the week and upcoming projects and test information.
The "Topics" pages update each Sunday evening at 5pm and will remain current until the following Sunday evening.
