Dear St. Anne-Pacelli Catholic School Parents,
We hope your family is enjoying the end of a wonderful summer break! With the first day of school approaching, we wanted to make you aware of the following 2019-20 arrival/dismissal procedures:
Arrival
1. Students may arrive at St. Anne-Pacelli Catholic School as early as 7:30 a.m. There will not be supervision available prior to this time. Our official school start time for students in PK3-12th grades is 8 a.m.
- Parents of PK3 students and those who have PK3 students and older siblings should drop off their children by entering the Kay Circle parking lot and turning right at the high school parking lot access street that runs alongside St. Anne Church (located just before you reach the main school office). Teachers will be present to help unload children under the porte-cochère that connects our school to St. Anne Church and ensure they get to their classrooms.
- Students in grades PK4-5 who arrive between 7:30 and 7:50 a.m. will report to our Extended Day Enrichment Program in the Lower School Cafeteria.
- Middle school students in grades 6-8 who arrive between 7:30 and 7:50 a.m. will report to our Extended Day Enrichment Program in the Kay Circle playground area (in cases of inclement weather, middle school students report to the Lower School Media Center).
- High school students in grades 9-12 who arrive between 7:30 and 7:50 a.m. should report directly to the high school where they can locker, turn in homework and socialize.
- Classrooms will open for students at 7:50 a.m.
2. Morning carline drop-off operates on Kay Circle and is for families with students in grades PK3-8 and high school students who don't drive and have younger siblings. The official start of morning carline drop-off is 7:30 a.m. This is when there will be adult supervision on the sidewalk.
3. For safety reasons, after the first week of school, parents may not walk children into school when carline is operational; we will operate two lanes of traffic at Kay Circle drop-off.
4. High school students without siblings in the Lower School may enter and leave the high school parking lot via our campus' Box Road entrance near St. Anne Community Outreach, located at 1820 Box Road, or via our high school parking lot entrance along Sheffield Drive.
St. Anne-Pacelli Catholic School students in PK4-12th grades may purchase breakfast from SLA Management. Breakfast will be served from 7:30 until 7:50 a.m. in the Lower School Cafeteria each day and will cost $2.00 (includes juice or milk). Students wishing to purchase breakfast should report to the Lower School Cafeteria after arriving on campus. PK3 students may opt to bring breakfast from home.
