The Candle Of Light

Light is pure. It penetrates darkness; it moves with incredible velocity; it nourishes life; it illumines all that comes under its influence. Therefore, it is a fitting symbol of God, the All Pure, the Omnipresent, the Vivifier of all things, the Source of all grace and enlightenment. It also represents our Blessed Savior and His mission. He was “the Light of the world”[John 8:12, NAB] to enlighten “them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death.” [ Luke 1:79, NAB]. The candle is also the universal symbol for the light of knowledge.

Khan Academy

Khan Academy is a nonprofit organization with the mission of providing a free, world-class education for anyone, anywhere. Students can get free help with mathematics, biology, physics, chemistry, economics and more. Parents are encouraged to have their daughter/guardian sign up on Khan Academy for help. This is a great way for students to get extra practice on difficult concepts or simply to get more information . Many of our students use Khan Academy frequently. Visit the Khan Academy website and sign-up today!

Edmodo

Edmodo is a “social learning platform” website for teachers, students, and parents. Teachers invite students into private groups that can be used for online classroom discussions, but in a format that keeps the teacher firmly in control. Teachers give students a class signup code, which can be deactivated once all students have signed up, and students in turn are encouraged to share the code with their parents, allowing them to monitor their own child’s activity. Many of our students already use Edmodo. Visit the site and sign up soon!
