NO SCHOOL ON
VALENTINE'S DAY
During our Catholic Schools Week Mass at the Cathedral in Covington last Wednesday, Bishop Foys gave all Catholic Schools in our Diocese a day off school. This year, he gave us a specific day,
Friday, February 14th.
Therefore, SJS will be closed on Valentine's Day. Since the following Monday is President's Day, the faculty, staff, and students will have a long four day weekend.

If your child is running a fever, or is not feeling well, PLEASE keep them home so we can keep germs from spreading. At this point, we have a total of 15 sick students in different grade levels. We need to keep the germs at home and not bring them to school. Teachers and the maintenance crew are wiping down tables, chairs and door handles daily but we need your help. PLEASE keep them at home if they are sick.

BUS DRIVERS NEEDED
Rob Haney, COO, Kenton County School District asked for our help with trying to recruit bus drivers. The school bus driver shortage is not unique to this area, and could possibly inhibit Kenton County from being able to efficiently transport students to public and Catholic schools.
