News from our Principal and Guidance Counselor
Dear Saint Anne School Parent,
February will focus on
Servant Leadership Habit #4 - Think Win Win
as we seek solutions to protect the children we love.
More than
four children die every day
as a result of child abuse
1
. St. Anne Parish School's end in mind is to equip all children with the life skills to protect themselves in the event of an unsafe situation. Over the years, we have implemented the Archdiocese of Chicago mandated child safety education program, "
Call to Protect for Young Children and Youth
," to prepare our children with skills on how to recognize dangerous behavior and giving them critical thinking tools to help them protect themselves. Children and youth will recognize boundary violations that precede abuse, to remove themselves from uncomfortable situations, and to tell a trusted adult when someone has crossed a boundary with them. Of course, adults cannot hold children responsible for their own safety; however we can synergize our efforts to have them play an active role in keeping themselves safe.
St. Anne School homeroom teachers will be teaching this important life skill during the weeks of February 6th - 17th for grades K-8. Parents can preview the program located at the school main office anytime starting Monday, January 23rd through Friday, February 3rd. The middle school videos total 45 minutes, so please plan accordingly.
For more information,
In addition, a reminder to our volunteer: Saint Anne Parish School is blessed with wonderful, dedicated volunteers.
Please be mindful that all volunteers within the building, (helping in the classroom, at lunch/recess, field trip chaperones etc.) or anyone working with the teachers and students must be in Archdiocesan compliance with the following:
- an online background screening- eApps
- DCFS background screening form-C.A.N.T.S. (completely annually)
- Code of Conduct form
- Mandated Virtus training course, followed by monthly bulletins
where a
ll necessary forms, links and registration information may be found.
If you have any questions, please contact Mrs. Nancy Cozza,
ncozza@stanneschoolbarrington.org,
our Site Administrator for compliance with the Office for the Protection of Children and Youth
Sincerely,
Mrs. Dawn Kapka
Principal
Mrs. Sasa Mo

Food Drive Coordinator Wanted
The Sharing Board is looking for someone to coordinate our Spring Food Drive to benefit the St. Columbanus Food Pantry. This is a well-established activity that involves working with volunteers over one weekend,
