Oscar Night!

The Fable:

A sick king lies ill in bed and his royal advisers tell him that the only cure is to find a truly happy man and take his shirt.  After searching far and wide, the only truly happy man in the kingdom was found to own nothing - not even a shirt!
 
Good job Maddie M, Matthew M and Kent B!

About Me

I am so happy to be a part of All Saints Catholic School again! I was born and raised in Surrey, England and started my teaching career there. Interestingly, my high school was called St. Anne's College! My husband and I emigrated in 1981 and became United States citizens in 1994. Our two daughters both attended All Saints and Bishop Kelley, and I was active in the All Saints P.T.O and served on the school board during that time. I taught English Language Arts, mainly at the pre-AP level, at Sequoyah and Childers middle schools from 2001-2014. My first love has always been literature, so I am delighted to be sharing that love with your children this year!
