Tips and Tricks for Parenting in the 21st Century

This tip is from: medlineplus.gov

How to Decrease Screen Time

Despite what ads may say, videos that are aimed at very young children do not improve their development. Less than 2 hours a day for children under 14 is what is recommended by researchers.
Cutting down to 2 hours a day can be hard for some children because TV may be such a large part of their daily routines. But you can help your children by telling them how sedentary activities affect their overall health.

To decrease screen time:

Remove the TV or computer from your child's bedroom.
DO NOT allow TV watching during meals or homework.
DO NOT let your child eat while watching TV or using the computer.
DO NOT leave the TV on for background noise. Turn on the radio instead, or have no background noise.
Decide which programs to watch ahead of time. Turn off the TV when those programs are over.
Suggest other activities, such as family board games, puzzles, or going for a walk.
Keep a record of how much time is spent in front of a screen. Try to spend the same amount of time being active.
Be a good role model as a parent. Decrease your own screen time to 2 hours a day.
Challenge your family to go 1 week without watching TV or doing other screen-time activities. Find things to do with your time that get you moving and burning energy.

Extra Service Hour Opportunities

If you are ready to get some service hours this year, here is what is needed so far:

This tip is from: C ommonSenseMedia.org

TikToc 101

TikTok is a social network for sharing user-generated videos, mostly of people lip-synching to popular songs.

You can provide a buffer between kids and iffy content by watching with your kids and making videos together. Offer to hold the camera or turn it around to do a selfie duet. You can post it or save it as "private" so only you can see. The app also lets you share videos by email, text, or other social media where you can better control who sees it, so kids can perform for friends and relatives instead of a wider network of people.

Many children will receive new gaming systems and devices this Christmas season. There are so many games on the market it is almost impossible to know what each is about and/or if they are appropriate for your child. The website above: CommonSenseMedia.org rates & reviews all games (and movies, tv shows, etc) for content. It's a great way to check to see if the game you are allowing your children to play is appropriate for them.

A Note from the Principals

Happy Monday on this beautiful 3rd week of Advent. This week we focus on the joyful celebration that is coming next week. This is very reflective of how each of our students are feeling right now. They joy and excitement are real in this last week of school. Please join us in celebrating the arrival of the baby Jesus on Thursday evening in the church. Students should meet in their classrooms at 5pm. The show will begin at 5:30pm. Please have your students wear bright Christmas attire. Please no black or jeans (boys may wear black slacks but no black jackets). The best way to spread the joy is to share it with others! Feel free to invite a friend to join you at our Christmas program :)

Please send in a Christmas food donation for our Pan de Vida food pantry this week. Pan de Vida provides food and support to families who need a little extra help during the holiday season and all year long. We are collecting canned foods, soup, and boxed stuffing. Thank you for your generosity!

Tuition reminder: The school office will be closed from Thursday Dec. 19th to January 6th. In order to avoid a late fee please stop by this week to make your payment. Thank you!

Have a great week!

We provide inexpensive items for your children to pick out, purchase, (create crafts), and wrap all on their own! If you would like to donate items or volunteer all day on Thursday please login to schoolspeak to sign-up or see Ms. D in the office.

We will also be hosting a parent's night on on Friday evening from 6pm-9pm so you can do your own Christmas shopping too! Drop the kiddos off with us. We'll feed them dinner and keep them entertained while you take some time for yourself during the Christmas rush.

Our Christmas Program will be at 5:30pm on Thursday Dec. 19th. Please drop off students in their classrooms at 5pm. We ask that all students wear holiday attire- NO black please (black slacks for boys is ok). The program will be in the church this year!

A Happy Birthday Wish goes out to Mrs. Goff (Friday 12/13), our Kindergarten aide. May she continue to do God's work with our children.

A Note from the Principals

After last week's tragedy at Saugus High School I want to take a minute to pray for those families who are grieving and the students who were effected. I also want to assure you that our teachers, staff, & students participate in monthly emergency drills, including lockdown drills. Our teachers and parents are vigilant in addressing any instance when our students are upset or arguing. One of the big benefits of Catholic Schools is that our campus and community is small and very secure. May Saint Christopher and Michael the Archangel continue to watch over our students and families to keep us safe.

Thank you everyone who joined us for our Family Mass & Harvest Festival yesterday. It was so much fun to see all of our students perform and have fun together.

Parent-teacher conferences are this week. Please see your teacher if you were not able to sign up for a time on schoolspeak.
Thursday & Friday are 12:30 dismissal. There will be no Hip Hop class this week.

There is NO SCHOOL next week. Have a fantastic Thanksgiving break!

The week we come back will be out bookfair! To celebrate we will be having an In-n-Out lunch truck on Thursday December 5th for a family picnic & Read-a-Thon. Pre orders are going out today.
There will be NO TICKETS SOLD ON THE DAY OF THE EVENT

Have a great week!

If you have a student in 8th grade, the financial aid paperwork for high school went out last week. If you need another copy or would like more information please see the office BEFORE Thanksgiving.

Our art fundraiser is officially underway! If you would like to purchase any items, all order forms are due next week. Thank you for your support!
