There is much to sing about at Sts. Peter and Paul School this month! We were
honored as our students were invited to display their artwork at the last
Gallery Hop on November 20th. Selected works from our 4th-8th graders graced
the walls of Christ Church Cathedral. These pieces were part of the Art at
the Cathedral exhibition entitled “For the Delight of Children”.
Art teacher, Beth Ettensohn, supervised a block printing demonstration by our
8th graders at the reception during the Gallery Hop, which was attended by
over 345 visitors! The exhibit will continue until January 10.
The first-ever baton team, the SPPS “Twirling Eagles”, made their city debut in
Lexington’s Christmas Parade. They are coached by UK majorettes Caitlin
Midkiff and Erica Kosilesky, and began as part of the fall 3D Arts Academy.
December is a month filled with many performance opportunities for our students.
Our 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grade students presented their version of “The Nutcracker”
on December 9th. Directed by PE teacher Amy Schenck, the ballet featured Mckenna
Sanders as Clara, Kristian Duncan as the Nutcracker, and Maya Mintu as the Sugar
Plum Fairy.
The SPPS Band and Chorus concert is scheduled for Wednesday, December 16. Our
4th and 5th grade chorus, 6th and 7th grade combined choruses, and band members
in grades 5-8 will perform in the Lexington Catholic High School auditorium at
7:00 PM.
The littlest “angels” at SPPS have planned a breakfast concert for 8:15 AM on
December 16th. Parents and grandparents will be treated to Bible passages,
songs, and dances performed by our Pre-School children.
