Wisconsin Public Service Foundation recognizes that educators of today are too often faced with the struggle of having to do more with less. In response to this increasing demand, they are supporting our educators with the Innovative Educator Grant. Resurrection Catholic School has received this Grant to start a middle school Lego Robotics club. Thanks to the committee that helped write the Grant. The committee included Mrs. Krahn, Mrs. Zeller, and Mrs. McAllister and a special thanks to Jackie Crown for organizing the Grant information and submitting it for us.

Speak Up is the first survey designed to help parents share their ideas directly with schools and national policymakers. As key stakeholders, Speak Up provides parents with a mechanism for expressing their views to the administrators at their child(ren)’s school and district about key issues impacting their child(ren)’s education. Since 2003, Speak Up has collected and shared the views of over 2.2 million students, teachers, and parents from all 50 states, as well as internationally. By participating in Speak Up, parents are expressing their views to a wider audience of local, state, and national policy makers as well as the business community—and contributing to the national dialog about science, technology, and preparing students for the 21st century workforce.
We have a wonderful group of 50 Confirmation students who will be Confirmed by Bishop Bob on February 11th, 2012. So far this year these students have participated in an orientation retreat with their parents, a session on Jesus’ message and mission, and a session on prayer and liturgy. The students are welcoming this journey with lots of great questions including:
If you find yourself asking some of these questions yourself, consider the RCIA process here at Resurrection to learn the ins-and-outs of Catholic teaching and belief.
At the first session, the students were invited to create their own parable about a random selection of objects provided them. Here are some of their thoughts:
Here are some pictures from our sessions!
This is a wonderful group of students preparing for lifelong discipleship as Catholics. Please continue to keep them in your prayers as we venture into the “What Confirmation Means” portion of our learning.

The 2011-2012 journey toward Confirmation has begun! As part of our Sunday Supper focus this year, our theme is Soul Food and we will be using lots of food analogies in our learning this year.
We have 51 students and 5 team members preparing for the sacrament this year. We just completed our orientation retreats this past week! Parents and students gathered to learn about the journey and spend some time reflecting together on the faith journey to this point.
With six more sessions, parish service projects, and the sacrament ahead of us, we ask for your continued prayers. May we all be reminded that we have committed in Confirmation to a lifetime of discipleship and witness to the message of Jesus.
If you’re curious to see a bit of what we are learning and how we are preparing join us at the POD Online!
