Dear St. Giles Families,
Happy Catholic Schools Week! This week we celebrate all of what we do and who we are at St. Giles as part of Catholic Schools Week. Our teachers have plans for Zoom activities and other events within our COVID protocols. We will share all of the fun via social media and enews. You can find the themes for each day this week here, CSW Schedule. Thank you to PTO for helping with our planning and providing lunch for all of us on Friday, February 5th!
Today from 10:30 a.m. to 12 p.m., we will be hosting a Virtual Open House for prospective families. Please consider sharing information about the Virtual Open House with your friends, family and neighbors who may be interested in St. Giles School. Encourage them to visit the website for more information about inquiring about attendance for 2021-22. (Friendly reminder: You can receive a $500 tuition credit for referring a new family to St. Giles who registers, is accepted and attends for the full 21-22 school year!)
Registration fee for 2021-22 school year posted Feb. 1
The non-refundable registration fee of $200 for the 2021-22 school year will be posted to your Facts account tomorrow, Feb. 1.
- If you have auto payments set up in your account, you don't need to do anything. The fees will process automatically on Feb. 22.

Uniform Code Reminders!
We'd like to remind all families of our policy around hair and embellishments. Please consult the St. Giles Handbook for a complete list of our policies. A few reminders are listed below:
Hair:
The student’s hair must be neat, clean, and well-groomed. Hair must be off one’s face and out of one’s eyes. Unnaturally colored, severe, bizarre, and extreme styles are not acceptable. Boys’ hair may only extend to the top of the collar and to the ear lobe on the sides.
Hats:
Hats are to be removed upon entering the building and may not be worn inside.
Headbands and hair ribbons: Solid white, navy, brown, or black.
Make-up/nail polish: absolutely none permitted.
We need disinfecting wipes!
With all of our protocols and daily routines, we are beginning to run low on wipes in our classrooms. If you are able to find wipes and have extras, please send them to school with your Lion or drop them at the office. We appreciate your help and generosity!
