Hello SMK8 Cardinals,
Thank you for having your parents return your learning packets or submitting assignments online. I hope you are continuing to do your very best on the assignments and projects from your second packet. You are doing an excellent job adjusting to the way you are learning and interacting with your teacher. You are showing the character skill of grit. Grit is passion and sustained persistence applied toward long-term achievement, with no particular concern for rewards or recognition along the way. Keep up the awesome display of Cardinal Character.
As always, I missed each of you and I am looking forward to seeing you soon. Stay safe and healthy. Listen to your parents and guardians and practice healthy habits.
This week is teacher appreciation week. Send a letter to your teachers letting them know how much you care about them.
“Together we have, can, and will do what’s best for each of you."
