Dear Parents,
I am so impressed with our school community and the ease with which we were able to dive right back in to our cherished routines. Parents deserve a gold star for cooperating with the car line expectations to ensure a safe drop off and pick up of all students. Wednesdays dismissal was the smoothest First Day Departure in many years. Good job parents!
Students deserve a gold star for their excellent behavior and participation in today's First Mass. Everyone was truly "Living with Mary the Joy of Christ's Real Presence" this morning. Good job students!
And teachers deserve a gold star for not only preparing an exciting welcome for all students, but also graciously accommodating the night crew (7:00pm to 5:00am) that is currently switching out all of our old, inefficient fluorescent lighting for new LED fixtures throughout the building. The work around the parking lot medians you see is to install new light poles to help with safety in our parking lot after dark. It is hard to imagine how soon it will be dark early in the evenings.
Mrs. Snyder and I are wondering if there are parents who would be interested in volunteering in the school, like we used to prior to the pandemic. We are going to start with Parent Volunteers in the Library and on Recess Duty. This would be a once-a-week commitment, on a month-by-month basis. If you are interested, please email Mrs. Snyder at jsnyder@stanthonyschoolva.org with your preference of duty and the day of the week that you are able to commit for September, or later on in the year. This would, of course, apply to your family's volunteer hours requirement. Volunteers must have taken the Diocesan "Virtus" safe environment training There will be also be a required volunteer orientation before your first day on the job. Thank you for your support of our amazing school.
May the Lord bless you and keep you,
Amy Fry, Principal
