In September Mrs. Kuflewski applied for a grant through McDonald's for up to $500 to aid toward STEM

related activities and lessons in the classroom, and she got it! The grant money she received will go toward

purchasing supplies for the Duct Tape Sculpture project that the students create in 7th and 8th grade. Each

project is required to have an element of technology, either light, sound, or audio enhanced, and the money

from the grant will be used to purchase circuits, batteries, bulbs, motors, recorders, speakers, and Duct Tape.

This grant money will allow for the students to push the limits of the assignment beyond what years past

projects have been able to accomplish!

Get Your St. Barnabas Warriors ornament while supplies last. Only $5.00, in the school office.

December Service Project -

St. Nicholas Stocking

As St. Nicholas shared with others, this month the students will share with others too. St. Barnabas students will help the poor by filling the red stockings they received from St. Nick with personal hygiene items, socks, hat, and gloves. These will be given to St. Vincent de Paul and Holy Family Shelter. The following items are needed:

Socks Hats Gloves

Bath Soap Shampoo/Conditioner Kleenex

Toothpaste/Toothbrush Lotion Dish Soap

Razors, Shaving Cream Brushes Laundry Detergent

Deodorant Toilet Paper Paper Towels

Please do not send any mouthwash, hotel/motel, sample size, or opened items. Please fill the stocking with the items listed above and return it to school. Send in as much as you would like, it doesn’t have to just fit in the stocking!

PLEASE return the stocking with or without the items to share. We use the same stockings every year. Thank You!
