Spirit Excellence Award

Macie has been in French emersion since September and she is doing awesome. She scored some high numbers and some exceptional comments from her teacher Madame Valerie on her very first report card.

 Macie even got an award in October for her efforts to speak and learn French. She of course never told us about the award, we had to find it crumpled up in her back pack.
                                             

Macie's First Christmas Concert

                                         

Holy Cross Elementary has been a great school for us these past 2 years. The staff and location are amazing. We appreciate the experience we are having so far.  Dec 5, 2017 was Maice's Christmas Concert. It was great. It was all about Jesus.  Macie Sang her songs in french. She is doing so good learning the french language.

Wade and Kansas did very well waiting and watching. It was a good family event, saw tons of friends, and enjoyed some good Christmas music.

The world through the eyes of Children

Most of us know this sign as the universal sign for a gas station well known and widely used in the Canadian north, however after reading this you will likely never look at it the same.

While driving by this gas station, Macie, who is learning how to spell and read words, age 6, started to spell this sign.

At first, I am sure none of us got what she was doing, but after it sank in I couldn't stop laughing

Her rendition of it was 3-s-s-o. Three, s, s, o.. She spells it out and there is silence in the car. I look over at Esso and realize what she had done. I never noticed it before but the E is in fact a backward 3.  so now it will be know by me as 3-S-S-O

Thank-you Macie.
