Honors Achievement Recognition

On Thursday, March 1st, students in Grades 4 – 8 gathered in Holy Cross Hall for our trimester Awards Assembly to recognize the academic achievements of their peers during the second marking period of the 2017-2018 school year. The following are the criteria for each award presented as well as the names of the students who deserve congratulations for their achievements:

High Honors are awarded to those students who have maintained a 93% or better average in each subject area and an 85% or better in each special subject for a full trimester. Conduct and effort grades are considered to be a strong part of the honor roll criteria. A minimum grade of a “B” must be maintained in both of these areas in order to qualify for High Honors.

High Honor Recipients for the Second Trimester

Grade 4: Jalena Almtanios, Elisa DeFilippo, Collette, Nappi and Madison Procanik
Grade 5: Bethany Caloza
Grade 6: Amanda Alatorre, Kerianne Garcia, Roman Garcia, Jeremy Jitendran, Jack Kehrli, Natalie Ruiz, and Natalya Sanchez

Honors are awarded to those students who have achieved a 93% or better overall average in major subjects and an 85% or better overall average in special subjects for a full trimester. Again, conduct and effort grades of at least a “B” must be maintained in order to qualify for the honor roll.

We share in the pride of each student’s academic accomplishments and encourage them to continue to strive for success! CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL!

SFX Parents,

This year we are implementing a new way to order school yearbooks. We have an online store that will be open until April 30th only. You can order your student a yearbook by using this link:

https://sfx2018yearbook.picaboo.com/

The cost of the hardcover, full-color yearbook is only $37 plus tax and it includes photos of all children in the school, including their school portraits and pictures from our many school activities, and pages for autographs as well. It's a great way for the students to remember their school year.

If you have any questions, please let me know.

Thank you,
Tracee Porras

Dear, SFX Family

We would like to thank you for all your financial and spiritual support in helping us with our Student of the Year Campaign as a part of The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Together we raised just over $40,000 to help save lives. We are both so humble at the amount we were able to raise. As a region we raised $404,951.00, this total embodies all amounts added up from every high school. Lauren and Nicole received the highest individual service award given out at the Gala of over 300 attendees, called The Philanthropic Award for campaigning, bringing the most awareness to our local community, and spreading the LLS mission. We also received a scholarship with this award. This experience and challenge will never be forgotten. It has affirmed our belief in the good of mankind a foundation that we learned here at SFX. A big shout out and thank you to Dr. Sullivan, Fr. Benny, Rita Recker and Lancer Creative! With love, Nikki Howell and Lauren Ryan class of 2014.
