October 5, Headmaster Email
Hi parents,
I apologize my headmaster email is getting out much later than usual this week! There is quite a bit of information to communicate:
Invitation from 55+ Luncheon
Our church's 55+ group has invited our students to join them for lunch. The students will sit in pairs interspersed with the seniors and enjoy a meal together. We did this a few years ago and it was a big hit among the students! The whole school will not be able to go all be able to go at once, but each month a different school house will join them. Our first 55+ luncheon is October 19; be on the lookout for information next week!
Additionally, we are needing assistance Monday, October 18, right after school to do turn-over of the lunch room in preparation for the luncheon. If you have a grade 7-8 student, would you consider allowing them to stay 15 minutes longer on Monday to volunteer in this capacity? Please discuss this with your child if you would like them to join in.
Replacement Costs:
All books from the school, including agendas, are subject to replacement fees should they be lost or damaged. Grade 2-3 agendas are $5 each and Grades 4 and up are $8 each. The fee for other books (textbooks, workbooks, or novels) will be based upon replacement cost of the item.
Latin & Greek Study Helps An industrious parent has discovered that the Quizlet app and website has study resources for our second languages. This is a free app that you are able to register for. Once in, you can search for what your child is learning as follows: K-1: Song School Latin, Book 1 2-3: Logos Latin Book 1 (listed by lesson number) Greek 1: Mounce New Testament Greek (by chapter) Greek 2-3: Summers New Testament Greek (by chapter) These are study helps made by independent users, therefore we suggest you check their flashcards by your student's flashcards or textbook to verify accuracy.
School T-shirts:
If you would like to order a school shirt (grey PE t-shirt), send your size to fbcauniform@gmail.com by October 15. The cost is $20. Additionally, if you have not yet received one for your child, please email their name and size to the uniform email by October 15. Finally, if you have experienced issues with your current shirts, please return them to the office as soon as possible to be sent away for warranty.
Upcoming Dates:
Monday, October 11: Thanksgiving--No School
Wednesday, October 13: Picture Day--Formal Uniform
Friday, October 15: Coffee Fundraiser Orders Due
Monday, October 18: 55+ Setup after school (Grade 7-8 students who are able)

In Christ,
Kyla Bleyenberg
