Today's Monarch

7th graders Nicole, Aar-Yana, Rebekah, and Christine ham it up at the Peace Learning Center at Eagle Creek Park.


From Mr. Heneghan’s class...
• The 8th graders had a swell time visiting our high school, Bishop Chatard on Tuesday. We participated in classical conditioning experiments in a senior-level psychology class, shadowed independently for part of the day, toured Chatard’s new Student Center, and were treated to a scrumptious lunch.
• 6th and 7th graders began learning about Zora Neale Hurtson, a major figure during the Harlem Renaissance in the 1920’s and ‘30’s.
• 8th graders on focusing on improving their writing across the curriculum, meaning they want their writing to be well-planned and well thought out in ALL classes.

From Mrs. Bryant’s class...
• Sixth grade students will have a test over bacteria and fungi on Friday. Students should review their class notes and text.
• Seventh grade students created dose response curves for their radish seeds lab, which are being returned in today’s take home folder. Ask your son or daughter what their unknown substance was and how it affected the germination of their radish seeds.
• Eighth grade students are studying Newton’s laws of motion and gravity.
• Phillip Bates, Christian Williams, and Payton Fowlkes will represent St. Joan of Arc at the Archdiocesan Science Fair this Saturday from 11am until 1pm at the CYO Center on Stevens Street.
