Cardinal Fest
By: Ava and Brooke
Cardinal Fest was September 10th, 2017.
This parish festival consisted of indoor and
outdoor games, food, prizes, fun, and bounce
houses. To kick off Cardinal Fest, there was a
junior high dance for 6th, 7th, and 8th graders.
Cardinal Fest was open to students, parents,
teachers, parishioners, and the community.
Mr.
Bullerman,
a 6th
grade
teacher,
said, ‘’It
was such a
fun event
for all ages
and the community!” The most popular game
was “Lucky Liters!” In the Lucky Liters game, a
circle rope was thrown to try to get it around a
liter of pop, which was the prize. Cardinal Fest
joined the neighborhoods together and made
St. Charles Church, school, and community a
place a person wanted to be a part of. That’s
what Cardinal Fest was about!

5K Walk & Run By Katie
As part of Cardinal Fest on Sunday,
September 10, 2017, a kid fun run and a 5k
race were held at St. Charles Borromeo
Church. The kid fun run was 2 laps around the
Church and the 5k race was around the
surrounding neighborhood. 116 people
participated in the 5k race, and many children
of all ages ran in the kid fun run. The 5k finish
times ranged from 18 minutes to almost an
hour.
Two of
those
116
people
were Mr.
Sordelet,
the
principal
of the school, and Fr. Tom, the pastor of the
church. Before the event, Fr. Tom challenged
Mr. Sordelet to a competition. Fr. Tom
finished only one second before Mr. Sordelet
– a close finish! On that hot and beautiful
day, there were cookies to eat and cold water
to drink after the race. This event was done to
bring people together and in memory of Msgr.
John Suelzer, who was the St. Charles pastor
for 30 years. Thank you for all the volunteers
who made this possible!
Junior High students take some time out of their busy schedules to check out the solar eclipse on August 21.

Our New 5th Grade Teacher
By Catherine and Kaylee
We have some very exciting news! The fifth
grade got a new science and social studies
teacher, Mrs. Coleman. She had taught for
eleven years at
Haley
Elementary.
She taught
nine years of
first grade and
two years of
second grade.
Her
homeroom
number at
Saint Charles
School is 5-16.
On a personal note, Mrs. Coleman has four
kids: two boys and two girls. Her birthday is
June 20th. Her favorite food is steak, and she
likes to eat at Casa Grande. Mrs. Coleman loves
that she and her students pray daily. She also
loves that her students come eager to learn. We
cannot wait to have a great year with Mrs.
Coleman!
Calling all Cardinals!

edition of The Cardinal Chronicle, please see

St. Therese of Lisieux
By Room 1-24
St. Therese of Lisieux was born on January 2,
1873, in France. Her mother died when she
was four years old, and she was raised by her
father and three older sisters. Therese became
a Carmelite nun when she was fourteen years
old. Her three sisters also became nuns. When
she was young, she suffered from an
unexplained illness. She was cured when a
statue of Our Blessed Mother smiled at her.
Therese spent her life doing little acts of
kindness and sacrifice, even when she became
ill with tuberculosis. She died of this disease
when she was just 24 years old.
Saint Therese of Lisieux by Elizabeth
St. Therese promised to spend her heaven
answering prayers and “letting fall a shower of
roses!” Many people have experienced her
answer to prayers accompanied with roses.
Therese was canonized a saint in 1925. Her
feast day is on October 1st. Her little way has
inspired many people to gain heaven by being
kind and loving! We can all become saintly by
imitating her!
The Bullermans
By Theresa, Kim and Addi
We asked Mr. and Mrs. Bullerman some
questions about how they like the school. They
both had similar answers.
We asked them “What do you think about
the school? What do you like and what do you
dislike?” They love being able to go to Mass
with their classes. They said there is a strong
faith here and a positive culture. Mr. B. (the
sixth grade aide and Mr. Bullerman’s dad) said
that the school is awesome and that there are
specific procedures that the students all follow
well. This will be his first year at St. Charles
and he also teaches at Ivy Tech in the body
shop. It is his ninth year there.
We then asked them “What is different
from your old school?” They said that the
school in Indianapolis where they taught only
had 7th and 8th grade students, while here we
have K-8th grade.
The students say they like the teachers and
they think it’ll be a great year. Also, they love
the Bullermans and think that they are kind
and loving to the students. We are thankful
the Bullermans are here at St. Charles.
Members of the National Junior Honor Society carry donations to a truck heading to Texas for hurricane relief efforts. The St. Charles School collection was organized by eighth grader, Mitchell Voglewede.
