Dear JPIIA Parents,
I am so excited for Trick or Trunk! See
you tonight. Everyone who has a child trick or treating
needs to bring candy to pass out. In addition, I will again
be judging best boy and girl costume and best trunk. A
huge thank you to the Slaasted and Howard families for
chairing this event this year. Bring on the fun!
Mandatory Parent STUDENT Teacher conferences are
coming (November 8 & 9). Please watch your email for the
link to sign up.
Cooler weather is on its way for next week. Please dress
your child in layers as it varies during the day and we try
to go to recess every day.
This Tuesday and Wednesday we are going to have our Ac-
creditation visit. This has been a long year and half pro-
cess to get ready. I really want to thank all of the facul-
ty, staff, parents and students that have helped. I am al-
so grateful to the Parish Staff and the Finance Council
who have helped a great deal. A huge thank you goes to
Mrs. Mueller, Mrs. Angelini and Mrs. Knapp who have led
the teams of organization. I feel very privileged to be
able to serve this community. This process every 7 years
really helps us to analyze and see how we are doing.
Please keep us all in your thoughts and prayers this week.

Counseling Corner
Mrs. Klein
It is hard to believe that we are already well into October. The beginning of school has been filled with learning, friendship, and positivity. The virtue of the month in September was Excellence. Rather than thinking of excellence as achieving perfection, the stu-dents and I defined excellence as always trying your best and paying close attention to every detail of your work. To reinforce this idea, classroom guidance lessons focused on developing a “Growth Mindset.” Through these discussions we learned that a student can develop abilities and achieve goals through motivation, hard work, and practice, in spite of obstacles or challenges. Emphasis was placed on teamwork and changing our self-talk from a Fixed Mindset to a Growth Mindset. For example, instead of saying “I’m not good at this,” we could say “Mistakes help me grow!” In the elementary school many great books were read including Giraffes Can’t Dance, The Most Magnificent Thing, and Your Fantastic Elastic Brain. In the junior high we completed an activity where, in groups, students had to build a pyramid out of red solo cups using only 4 pieces of string and 1 rubber band. This really illustrated the im-portance of teamwork and perseverance when things are difficult. This year, I am going to be recognizing two students, one boy and one girl, each month that exemplify the virtue, as nominated by their teachers. These students will receive a certificate and have their names read over the announcements as well as be included in a display called “The JPIIA Wall of Virtue.”
The September Character Club recipients are as follows:
4K: Dulce T.and Decarlo T.
5K: Natalia P. and Emmett L.
1: Jaylyn C. and Kyle B.
2: Je’Ziya P. and Jack A.
3: Valeria P. and Benito S.
4. Monet W. and Joshua A.
5: Angela .and Jon O.
6: Evelyn C-V. and Diego S-F
7: Jocelyn G. and Connor S.
8: Jennifer G. and Fernando S-M.

Cooler Weather & Uniforms
With the cooler weather we have had many requests for uniform sweatshirts and/or long sleeve polos. Any uniform items
we have in stock are while supplies last only. We do not plan to order more. Therefore, if we do not have the size you are
looking for, you must order uniform items from Lands End. This includes all logo’d items such as short / long sleeve polos
and sweatshirts. Please note: students may wear a non-logo sweater (knit cardigan, crew / V-neck, vest, etc.) but it must
be worn over a logo’d polo shirt. Sweaters must be red or navy and cannot be sweatshirt material. Questions? Contact
the school office for further clarification.
Current uniform items in stock are all unisex sized L (14-16) and XL (18-20) and a small amount of adult sizes.
John Paul II Academy is proud to announce its participation in the
5th Annual Soles Walk for Catholic Education to be held on October
