Third Grade News
Our
Third Graders had a coloring contest to celebrate Martin Luther King, Jr.
Day. The top three participants were
selected by Sr. Diane and Sr. Christy.
The top three students are: Macrae Halusczak, First Place, Brett Gregory, Second Place and
Victoria Gevaudan, Third Place. All of the Third Graders did a great job
and this was not an easy contest to judge.
Congratulations Macrae, Brett and Victoria!

Annamae-12pts, Heidi-10pts, Cora-3pts, Maddie W-3pts, Maddie G-2pts,
Hannah-2pts, Carlyle -2pts, Elizabeth-2pts and Katie I-2pts. It was truly a
team effort on all aspects of the game. Congratulations girls, job well done.
