Dear SRS Parents and Guardians,
Happy Spring! It’s hard to believe we are in the final trimester of the school year. Barring any additional inclement weather our last day of school for students in grades 1-7 will be Wednesday, June 15. The PreK and Kindergarten programs will end a bit earlier. PreK and Kindergarten teachers will be in touch with their parents regarding the end of year celebrations.
Yesterday the re-enrollment agreement was sent home with the youngest child in your family. We ask that you return the signed agreement along with your $150 per student deposit by Thursday, April 14. This will guarantee your child’s spot for next year. We currently have had close to 70 new applications for the upcoming school year with additional inquiries and tours daily. To date, close to 50 new students have been accepted. If your child will not be returning to St. Rita in the fall, kindly notify the school office.
Msgr. Joe has been notified by the Archbishop that he will be retiring effective May 1. St. Paul VI Parish will celebrate Msgr. Joe’s retirement and honor him for his service to the Church at a special Mass and reception on May 1. More details regarding the Mass and reception will be sent out shortly.
Our summer camp program for incoming kindergarten through grade 5 students is back again this year. Mrs. Palowski and Mrs. Fortuna will be the camp directors. Please see the link below with more information about the programs. The registration for camp will open on April 1.
