\"\"<\/a>L.I.F.E. Skills are taught and modeled at St. Mary of the Assumption School.
\nL.I.F.E. stands for Living in a Faith filled Environment and a new L.I.F.E.
\nSkill is introduced every 2 weeks. With each new skill, there is a story about
\na saint who modeled that word. Those who won the “Courage” award were Ben
\nScheidt, Kaden Thomas, Mrs. Wolke, Rayana Thatcher, Kennedy Boroff, and Alana Eddings.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Perseverance is another word that is part of our L.I.F.E. Skills. To persevere
\nmeans to continue on no matter what may be in thrown in your way. Our
\nperseverance award winners were: Mrs. Koenig, Adam Schrader, Natalie Riethman, Erin Terhark, Maggie Cassidy and Jadelyn Jackson.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>As part of Catholic Schools Week, the students of St. Mary of the Assumption
\nSchool always have a Quiz Bowl. Grades three through six were divided into
\nteams of four or five. Each team selected a name of a Pope for their team.
\nAfter several rounds, it came down to the team of Pope Alexander II against
\nthe team of Pope Pius X. The winners were the team of Pope Alexander II. Team members included Ryan Pratt, Colin McHugh, Caroline Kopack. Risa Pollock, and Kennedy Boroff.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Another tradition during Catholic School Week is to invite the parents and
\ngrandparents to eat lunch with their favorite St. Mary’ student. Lasagna was
\nserved and a big crowd attended. After lunch the parents and grandparents
\nvisited the student’s room and visited with the teacher. What a great way to
\nfinish up Catholic Schools Week.<\/p>\n
