New Life is what Easter is all about. We are wishing you a beautiful new life made possible by the amazing gift of the Easter story. Pacelli School's third grade class recently has been watching eggs hatch in their classroom! What started out as a simple science project actually turned out to be much more! Who knew that by hatching eggs, our children would learn about researching information, telling time, bar graphs, collecting and recording data, weights and measurement. They now have 2 cute chicks that they watched grow from the egg to poking their way out to new life, similar to the new life we have in Christ. Who knew that this simple science project would also incorporate faith, teaching our children the real meaning of Easter. Enjoy the Easter Break and see you back on April 13th!

HEALTH & WELLNESS "JUST TRY IT" was a Success!!! This months "Just Try It" was a success! The kids tried brownies made with canned pumpkin instead of oil and eggs. Low in both calories and fat, canned pumpkin is a healthy substitute for oil and eggs in a variety of baked goods. With a bright orange color and creamy consistency, canned pumpkin can be effortlessly added to mixes for cakes, cookies, breads and brownies. It's also low in sodium and high in fiber and healthy antioxidants. Brownie Makeover 1 Box of brownie mix 1 can of pure pumpkin Mix 1 can of pumpkin with the brownie mix. Expect to add an extra 10-15 for bake time. PTO NEWS LAST CALL FOR THE FASHION SHOW! Pacelli at the Derby...Seersucker and Silks!
