From the Principal
Welcome Back!

We have made a great start to the 2019-20 school year! All our teachers are busy helping our students learn the classroom routines and rules. I am delighted to meet all the students.  It is such a pleasure to be greeted by the students with a smile and a hug anytime I visit the classrooms. I am truly blessed to be a part of the St. Michael community. It is going to be an exciting year full of learning and fun.

You will be receiving a  Partners in Faith  newsletter in your child’s yellow folder. There will also be a link that you can click on to access it electronically. It is a great resource to you as parents to have conversations about our Catholic faith. I hope you find it useful.

Your children’s safety is our first priority. It is crucial that we follow all carpool arrival and dismissal procedures. Following are some gentle reminders:

·       Please turn your car engines off during dismissal carpool.
·       We encourage all parents to come out of your cars to receive your children. We feel comfortable knowing who is picking them up.
·       Please call the front office, if there is a change in plans and you are asking someone else to pick up your children. We will ask for their ID to confirm.
·       Any children not picked up will be sent to Aftercare.

I look forward to seeing all of you at Back to School Night next week.

God Bless!

Father Drummond and Mrs. Fernandez
Our First Day of School began with a prayer and a blessing by Father Drummond. Mrs. Fernandez introduced the new faculty to the students, and our new students were introduced to the school. It has been a great first couple of days!
