Next week is National Lutheran Schools Week - a time when we get to celebrate with Lutheran schools all across the country the identity we share as Christian schools and extensions of the Lutheran ministry. Did you know there are 1,190 preschools, 842 elementary schools, and 85 high schools serving more than 250,000 students and their families? There are also 10 universities and 2 seminaries for those that wish to extend their Lutheran based education beyond their grade school and high school years. It's such a wonderful opportunity to be a part of this system! To celebrate this week, we will be participating in a fun activity each day.
- Monday: Photo Day - We will be spelling out words from our theme for the school year - "LIFE ~ Living In Faith Everyday" - and having class pictures taken. Watch for these to be posted throughout the school in the near future!
- Tuesday: Favorite Sports Team Day - Wear a shirt to show off your favorite sports team! And if you don't have a team shirt - wear a Falcon shirt to show your Falcon pride!!
- Wednesday: Toothpaste & Deodorant Day - Be sure to use your own in the morning, and then bring in a new one for your chapel offering to share with those in need! We are collecting toothpaste and deodorant along with Our Redeemer Lutheran Church for students in need in the Tigard/Tualitin School District.
- Thursday: Crazy Sock Day - No explanation needed! Show off those crazy feet!!
- Friday: Amazing Race Day - An all-school, all-day activity. It's going to be awesome!!!
