Top Three Chromebook Shortcuts

By: Patrick Farrell

(Do you use these shortcuts on your chromebook? You should!)

1. Control + C / Control + V

A simple quality of life shortcut, holding Ctrl and pressing C, this command copies the text you highlighted with your mouse. When you want to paste or add the text wherever you are typing you simply hold Ctrl and press V.

2.  Ctrl + Alt + ?

When holding Control and Alt then hitting ?, you can see all the shortcuts on your Chromebook that didn’t make the top 3. You should use this shortcut to make your own list of shortcuts and show off to your friends.

3.  Alt + Tab

And, at the top spot (my personal favorite), when holding down alt and hitting tab you can switch between tabs with ease. This shortcut is very helpful when you have multiple different google chrome tabs open to do work.

         Welcome Back, Mrs. Mazur!
                                        By Cecilia Gordan

     In May of 2019, the school said goodbye to our math specialist Mrs. Mazur.  And now, we welcome her back as a fourth grade teacher! When she left three years ago, it left a hole in the Saint Charles community, and now that she’s back, that hole is filled with joy and fun!. As a fourth grade teacher, she teaches math, English, religion, health and reading to her homeroom, and science for all of the fourth grade. Her students are always happy around her, and are always learning something new. Fun Friday is a highlight of their week with her, where the students have 20 minutes to play outside, in the classroom, or in the gym. She finds many exciting ways to teach new topics like Kahoots, cut & pastes in notebooks, and creative science experiments. She encourages questions if you don’t understand something.
     Who could talk to Mrs. Mazur and not realize how funny she is! She makes jokes all throughout the day. She always keeps a light spirit present in the classroom. She can smile even on the worst days, and all the students are in a better mood because of it. (When you're a fourth grade teacher, you definitely need to have patience). Somehow, Mrs. Mazur seems to have an infinite amount of it! If you don’t understand something in her class, she is always happy to help you out. She truly cares about everyone’s grades and their emotional health.
     We are all very happy to have Mrs. Mazur back in our Saint Charles school community. I hope she knows that we are grateful for her presence and joyous spirit!

Mr. Vasey is one of our newest teachers at Saint Charles! 

                             By Madelyn Hyland

Mr. Vasey is our seventh and eighth grade English teacher at Saint Charles. He is also one of the seventh grade homeroom teachers. He always wanted to be a teacher and was inspired by his eighth grade teacher, Mrs. Callahan. He chose Saint Charles because “Mrs. Updegrove was very  welcoming; we had the same teaching ideas.” 

Mr. Vasey graduated from Trinity Highschool in 2016.  In 2021 he graduated from Marietta College, which is about 170 miles south of Parma, in Marietta, Ohio. He studied English and teaching as his majors. 

Spitting some fun facts about Mr. Vasey! He played football for Trinity High School (Go Trojans!) and Marietta (Go Pioneers!). He coaches for Parma Senior High football! He is a defensive line coach. In his free time, he enjoys watching football and horror movies. He likes to coach football and read. His birthday is April 2nd (an Aries)! He does not have any pets, but would love to have at least one dog. 

  Welcome to Saint Charles, Mr. Vasey!

Better FOR Others

by Michelle Salem
 

The Saint Charles Borromeo theme this year is Better FOR Others. What does that mean?

I think it’s important that to be Better FOR others, you need to start with yourself.  Being good to yourself makes you a happier and healthier person. Being your best and feeling good about yourself sets an example to others. Being better FOR others means helping and connecting with others. 

Making good, moral choices shows others that you're a good person, and more people will want to be around you. Being the best version of yourself encourages others to be the change they want to see in their lives. Our environment, plants, animals, the air, water, and people all depend on each other for world peace and happiness. So be the best person you can be. We aren’t here to be better THAN others, we are here to be better FOR others.

    Eighth Grade Camp Christopher Retreat

by A. Predmetsky

  On September 8th, the eighth  graders went on a retreat to Camp Christopher. We got to do so many amazing and prayerful things! Some of the things we did were going on a hike, singing and dancing to prayerful songs, and of course in the end we had Mass. 
 
  We hiked all through the campground. We went up a hill between two big rocks, and down the very steep but fun hill. Also we would make stops on the hike to hear witness stories. Witness stories are about how God helped someone get through a hard time in their life.  One stop was called Old Man's Cabin.  Old Man's Cabin was part of an old house on the campground. We sang and danced to many songs. We even got to stand on the tables! Another thing we got to do was throw rocks in a pond and say what you want to leave behind, such as stress and worries. In the end we had Mass with our family. Telling our families all about the fun we had at camp was the best part! 

  This very amazing retreat could have never happened without Mrs. Updegrove, Mrs. Bentley, Mr. Ungvarsky, and Trinity High School. It was a great way to open the 8th grade year! Thank you for planning this amazing retreat! The 8th grade class enjoyed every thing we did to bring us closer together as a class and together with God. Thank you!
