On Tuesday, February 3, St. Bernard School proudly celebrated the 100th Day of School, marking an exciting milestone in our academic year. Students and staff joined in the fun by dressing up as 100-year-olds, filling the halls with canes, glasses, gray hair, and plenty of smiles.

Classrooms across the building were buzzing with creative, hands-on activities centered around the number 100. Students searched the school to find 100 hidden stickers, completed 100 themed coloring sheets, and created festive 100 Day crowns to wear throughout the day. Older students explored math and probability by flipping a penny 100 times and analyzing their results, while younger students counted, sorted, built, and created using collections of 100.

The day was filled with laughter, learning, and meaningful moments that highlighted just how much our students have grown since the beginning of the school year. Celebrating the 100th Day is a wonderful reminder of the effort, perseverance, and progress our students and teachers have made together.

Most importantly, the celebration marked that we are officially over halfway through the school year. We are proud of the hard work our students have put in so far and excited for all the learning still to come.

What a fun and memorable way to celebrate 100 days of learning at St. Bernard School!

Our seventh-grade students recently had a memorable and hands-on learning experience thanks to a visit from educators from the NEW Zoo & Adventure Park. The presentation brought science to life as students learned about animal conservation and the important role humans play in protecting wildlife.

During the visit, students explored what conservation means and discussed simple, everyday actions they can take to help protect animals and their habitats. From being mindful of waste to respecting wildlife and the environment, students learned that even small choices can make a meaningful difference.

The highlight of the visit was meeting several fascinating animal ambassadors. Students had the opportunity to see a bull python, a hermit crab, a blue-tongued skink lizard, and a chinchilla up close. These encounters sparked curiosity, thoughtful questions, and excitement as students connected classroom learning to real-world experiences.

This visit was a wonderful extension of our science curriculum and a powerful reminder of the importance of caring for God’s creation. We are grateful to the team from the NEW Zoo and Adventure Park for sharing their knowledge and passion with our students and helping make learning both engaging and unforgettable.

Catholic Schools Week is always a joyful and meaningful time at St. Bernard School, and this year’s celebration was truly filled with faith, service, community, and fun. From prayerful moments to spirited dress days, our students, staff, and families came together to celebrate all that makes Catholic education so special.

We began the week on Sunday by celebrating our parish and families through attendance at Mass and by sharing a colorful display of student-created pennants in the Narthex. Throughout the week, students proudly showcased their creativity, faith, and school spirit while reflecting on the many blessings of being part of the St. Bernard community.

Service and outreach were at the heart of our celebration. Students participated in a collection drive to support the Alexandrina Center, helping provide essential items for mothers and babies in the Green Bay community. They also decorated lunch bags for ADRC, spreading kindness and encouragement through simple messages and artwork. These acts of service reminded our students that faith calls us to care for others.

Each day brought special activities that highlighted different aspects of Catholic Schools Week. Students enjoyed show and tell, school-wide bingo, a scavenger hunt, and daily surprises from Student Council. One of the highlights was our teacher swap, where staff members switched classrooms to lead fun and engaging activities, much to the delight of students.

Midweek, students celebrated our nation by creating prayer chains filled with intentions for our country. They also enjoyed a special school-wide movie experience, with K through 8 students traveling to the De Pere Cinema to see the movie David, while our preschoolers enjoyed a movie and popcorn right here at school.

Thursday focused on vocations, with students participating in Stop, Drop, and Pray moments throughout the day. Friendly competition filled the gym during the Battle of the Disney Parks, where homerooms worked together in challenges that emphasized teamwork, leadership, and school spirit.

We wrapped up Catholic Schools Week by celebrating our faculty, staff, and volunteers. A special closing ceremony and pep rally recognized our student athletes and brought the entire school together in gratitude and joy. The week concluded with moments of reflection, laughter, and appreciation for the dedicated adults who make St. Bernard a place where students can grow in faith and learning.

Catholic Schools Week is always a reminder of the strong community we share at St. Bernard School. We are grateful for our students, families, staff, parish, and supporters who help make our school a place where faith comes alive each and every day.

Peace. Pray. Learn.

Over the next two weeks, our students in grades K through 8 will participate in winter STAR testing, an important part of how we monitor progress and plan instruction to best meet the needs of every learner.

All K–8 students will complete both a literacy and a math STAR assessment between Monday, January 12, and Friday, January 23. These assessments provide valuable data that helps our teachers understand student strengths, identify areas for growth, and adjust instruction moving forward.

This year, we have strengthened our support system by implementing WIN time (What I Need) in every classroom across grades K–8. WIN time allows teachers to provide targeted, individualized instruction based on student needs. Using STAR results, teachers focus on specific skills recommended for each student, ensuring instruction is purposeful and responsive.

In addition to small group and individualized instruction during WIN time, students also use programs such as IXL to practice and reinforce targeted skills in both literacy and math. These tools allow students to work at their own level while giving teachers real-time data to guide instruction.

Teachers meet weekly in Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) to review STAR and IXL data together. During these meetings, teachers collaborate, analyze trends, and plan strategies to better support each student. This consistent use of data ensures that instruction remains focused, intentional, and aligned to student needs.

As testing approaches, we ask families to partner with us by helping students arrive at school ready to do their best. Please ensure your child is getting a good night’s sleep and eating healthy meals during the testing window. These simple steps help create the best possible conditions for students to show what they know.

STAR results will be shared with families in early February. Once results are reviewed, teachers will work with students to set goals and plan next steps as we prepare for the final round of STAR testing in the spring.

We are excited to see the growth our students continue to make and look forward to supporting each learner through intentional instruction, targeted supports, and meaningful goal setting.
