The Editor’s Desk: NOV ’08 Edition

Hey guys, it’s the editor of the best online newspaper coming at you here. So, how do you like the newspaper so far? If you like it now, get excited because it’s going to get better by the issue.

Did you guys know this is the first ever online newspaper for St. Leo the Great? Actually, it’s the first ever newspaper… period! Isn’t that exciting?

So, earlier this school year, a bunch of events took place. Like the Back-to-School family fun nights, where St. Leo students and their families came and ate a bunch of great food, dance until their feet hurt, and had a great time. There was also a movie night where the 8th grade students put on a movie and served snacks to raise some money for their Washington D.C trip.

And last month, there was a great Halloween Carnival that had a great (and scary) haunted house, a disco mama, and some delicious food. Coming up, there is going to be a Christmas boutique with breakfast, shopping, and a chance to meet Santa. Don’t miss it!

By the way, I wanted to express my thoughts on the 2008 election. Both candidates were really great, and they each had a great shot at becoming president. When you look back to the beginning of the election, it’s kind of amazing that we finally made it to Election Day, don’t you think?

So, tune in for the December issue of THE LION LEDGER! Look out for the Christmas Wish List (where we see what are the top toys kids of 2008 are asking for), and see how St. Leo students and teachers spend their time around the holidays.

And lastly, while you’re on the website, don’t forget to play the new games, take your vote on the polls, and just have fun!

Sincerely,

Semhal G., 8th grade
