Second Grade Saints

On November 1, 2007, the second graders were introduced early in the All Saints' Day Mass as the saints they chose to portray. The students learned about their saints' countries of origin, feast days, when they lived, and about their sainthood (patron saint of ___). Costumes were creative, colorful, and made from simple items brought from home. Each "saint" carried a symbol for which they are best known. The children were very proud and excited to show SJOA all they had learned!
