Hello Grade 2 Families, Next week on Feb. 14th Lent begins with the observance of Ash Wednesday.  This is a day of sacrifice, fasting, and abstinence in the Catholic Church.  This year, Valentines Day happens to fall on the same day.  Students will be invited to hand out Valentines if they wish; however, all/any treats should be given on a day other than the 14th (as it is Ash Wednesday).  Any treats attached to Valentines will be sent home to enjoy.  Students wrote a name list of student names today and will bring it home.  They can use this should they wish to write the names of their peers on their Valentines.  There are 23 students in our class.
