Next Wednesday we begin the season of Lent. Lent is a solemn time of observance and preparation for the celebration for the remembrance of the death and resurrection of Jesus at Easter. From its start on Ash Wednesday until its conclusion on Easter Sunday. Lent is a traditional time for fasting or giving up something, extra prayer, and almsgiving.
This week at school the students will fill out their Bona Opera. Bona Opera is the latin word for “good works.” Students will be encouraged to think of a “good work” they can do this Lenten season, and also something that they can give up. As a family, please consider taking time this weekend to discuss ways your family can celebrate this Lenten season together.
Have a great weekend!

Re-enrollment is now open for all of our returning families. You should have received an email with instructions on how to complete the re-enrollment process. Everything will be ran through our FACTS system. We have had a few questions that are addressed below in order to help everyone understand this new process. Please address any additional questions to Mrs. Littell via email - slittell@strochindy.org
|
|
How do I re-enroll my child?
To re-enroll please visit
www.factsmgt.com
and log in to the family portal as a parent. (Contact Mrs.Littell by email if you are having any issues with this.) Once logged in there should be a menu on the left for enrollment. All eligible students in your family should be listed. If you have a child at home that is eligible for kindergarten, pre-k or preschool they should also be listed as an option for registration. You are welcome to register them at this time as they would fall into our returning family category. If you have an eligible student that is not listed and you would like to enroll them please contact Mrs. Littell.
What is the District Code when logging into FACTS?
SRCS-IN
Has tuition for next year been set?
No, tuition is not yet established for the 2020-2021 school year. A slight increase is expected. Please refer to our current tuition rates in order to estimate your upcoming tuition.
Click here to view current tuition.
How much is the Registration Fee and when is it due?
The registration fee is $100 per student and due at the time of registration. However, if you are unable to pay the fee at this time, it is still encouraged to begin the registration process and then return to it once you are able to pay the fee. All registration fees should be paid no later than April 1st, 2020. Your child will not be registered until this fee has been paid.
What is the FACTS Tuition Enrollment Fee?
FACTS charges a fee in order to manage your tuition plan. During re-enrollment you will be asked to select a payment plan for your tuition. Depending on the plan you choose the fee will be in the amount of either $20 or $50 (per family). This fee will not be immediately charged at the time you choose your payment plan. It will only be charged once your tuition is established and posted. If you will be receiving financial aid, an SGO and/or a Voucher that covers the entire cost of your tuition then the fee will be automatically omitted. The fee will only be charged if you have a remaining balance, once all financial aid has been applied, and when your tuition plan goes into effect.

Parents - Experience the Unconditional Love of Christ this Lent - be a part of “No Greater Love” program at St. Roch -
Offered Monday mornings and Thursday evenings
In No Greater Love, You Will Experience the Unconditional Love Christ Has for You. We often hear about Jesus’ passion and death, but imagine experiencing them for the very first time. In No Greater Love: A Biblical Walk Through Christ’s Passion, we are going to walk step-by-step with Jesus on his journey from his agony in the garden to his crucifixion on Calvary. Along the way, we will unpack the biblical background to these events, the prophecies, and most especially, the ways Jesus is inviting us to walk more closely with him today. No Greater Love is a five-part video Bible study program offered Monday mornings at 7:45 am (beginning March 2) and Thursday evenings at 6:30 pm (beginning Feb. 27). Suggested offering for participation is $20 each to help cover study journal, book, and other materials. For more information or to register, call the parish office at (317)784-1763 or email
