Resurrection Elementary Catholic School Open House
Resurrection Catholic School will host an open house October 18th featuring animals. In recognition of St. Francis, the patron saint of animals whose feast day is in October, the public is invited to a 1 p.m. Zoo America assembly called “Paws, Claws, Scales and Tails” that will teach how animals survive in the wild – including foraging, eating, swimming, escaping from and defending against predators. Alternatively, come in the evening, 6-7 p.m. , for Fun With Our Animal Friends to see kindergarten through 3 rd grade animal projects. The school welcomes families considering Catholic school especially if kindergarten approaches for their child. Resurrection strives to create a balance so children learn, socially interact and get what they need to prepare them for success in future grades. “Anyone thinking about kindergarten for their children will want to see the fun and creative lessons our students engage in every day,” said Principal Brenda Weaver. “Our primary grade teachers and families will share their animal creations they imagine and design themselves.” Resurrection’s K-8 building offers a safe, yet disciplined environment where students from multi-cultural backgrounds share the opportunity to achieve in happy surroundings. Students are educated in the Catholic faith with daily religion classes, morning and dismissal prayers and weekly Masses. Kindly call the school, 717-392-3083, to assure your seat at the Zoo America assembly.
