March 17th - St. Cecilia COVID-19 Update
Dear Parents,
Thank you all for your support and patience during these rapidly changing and challenging times for us all.
Late this afternoon a meeting took place with the Catholic Schools Office and all Catholic School Principals. All Catholic schools - including St. Cecilia Catholic School - will be closed through Friday, April 10th, with a tentative return date of Monday, April 13th. While this is on our calendar as Easter Monday, after this prolonged closure our plan at this time is to resume classes on that Monday, April 13th.
While this does escalate us to
Level 4 on our Risk Management Matrix
, this escalation is due to local officials and Catholic School Office directives. We do not have a confirmed case of COVID-19 (or risk of exposure) in our St. Cecilia Catholic School community.
School Calendar
All events - athletics, extracurriculars (
including PSIA
), etc. - currently scheduled through this time (Friday, April 10th) are also canceled (some may be postponed). At this point, the Catholic Schools Office does not anticipate communicating an update regarding school closures until Holy Week (April 6th - 10th). We are in the process of updating the school calendar within the next few days to reflect these changes.
Distance Learning
On Monday, March 23rd, families will receive emails directly from teachers regarding the implementation of our
Continuity of Learning Plan
, which we will
begin on Tuesday, March 24th
.
We will continue to update our community as we receive more information and regarding our Continuity of Learning Plan. We sincerely hope you and your families are doing well, and finding ways to enjoy this Spring Break. Thank you again for your support, patience, and understanding.
Warm regards, blessings, and health to you and your families.
