IMPORTANT UPDATES:
MASS BEHAVIOR:
While we have seen much improvement over the last several weeks regarding Mass behavior, we ask that you kindly help us by reminding your children to respect the solemnity of Mass (i.e., refrain from talking or participating in other distracting behavior).
DRESS CODE UPDATES (SHOES)
We again have seen much improvement with overall dress code. However, we continue to experience dress code violations when it comes to full Mass uniform, particularly shoes. Please refer back to the "Parent/Student Handbook" for guidelines on shoes. Beginning October 5th, students will received write-ups for not wearing proper Mass uniform shoes. If you have questions or concerns, please contact Ms. Russell.
ANTONIAN LOGOS (CREST, NAME, AND THE ANTONIAN "A")
Last year, Antonian filed for trademark registration of Antonian marks/logos (crest, name, and the Antonian "A"). We are excited to announce that we are officially trademarked! Individuals who wish to use official marks/logos for Antonian should contact the Communications Office for approval. We kindly ask that if any families currently using any official mark/logo without written permission discontinue use. Likewise, if you see the official mark/logo in use, please alert the Communications Office so that a communication can be sent to the vendor. Thank you!
HOMECOMING MUMS
In an effort to support businesses that are owned or operated by members of the Antonian community, we have established a business directory that is available on the Antonian website under "Business Office." Among the businesses that families might wish to patronize at this time of year are homecoming mum vendors. Please note that all transactions are handled directly with the vendor with no involvement by Antonian.

If the parent/guardian of the student agrees to do so, he/she should upload images of the front and back of the COVID vaccination card through their grade level Google Classroom assignment.
