Two weeks ago, St. Paul hosted a Welcome Back Weekend to celebrate the new school year. There were a variety of different events for students to participate in over the two day period. The weather was chilly, but spirits were high on Friday, September 18th for the drive-in movie show. Students gathered in the school parking lot for a late night showing of “The Greatest Showman”. People bundled up under blankets with popcorn and hot chocolate to enjoy the movie, laughing and chatting with friends. There was singing and even dancing as everyone celebrated finally being back together. Even with social distance rules and mask wearing, everyone had a great time. On Saturday, there was a Quarantine Art Show, presenting artwork that students created during the quarantine. There are some very talented artists at St. Paul, and this event celebrated all their talent and efforts. Also on Saturday, the Chalk it Up event took place, where each grade competed while showing off their artistic talents. Teams were created to represent each grade level, and each team decorated a parking spot, following a unique theme. The chalk drawings came out exceptionally well, brightening up the whole parking lot. The Senior class created a fall harvest theme, featuring pumpkins and a scarecrow. “Growing together” was proudly displayed in the Juniors’ space, including bright flowers. The Sophomore class created a colorful spiral, featuring the St. Paul falcon in the center. Finally, the Freshman Class had brightly colored shapes, forming a stained glass window pattern. Students enjoyed hanging out and chatting over hot chocolate while creating these vivid masterpieces. Thanks to all the wonderful artists who contributed to this event! What a great start to the new school year! Comments are closed.
