Are you ready to lace up your sneakers and join us for an exhilarating event? Our annual Fun Run is just around the corner, and we couldn't be more excited to see our students, families, and staff come together for a day of fitness, fun, and fundraising!

Mark your calendars for May 24th as we gear up for a morning filled with laughter and energy. By participating in the Fun Run, youll be supporting St. David's efforts in our continued efforts to update our school's facilities and academic programs.

Grab your water bottles, rally your friends and family, and let's make this year's Fun Run the best one yet! Emails from the Fun Run company should have gone to the email shared with the school at the beginning of the year. If you have not yet received it, please contact our school office. It has been reported that the emails went into the spam folder if you have a yahoo email.

PTG ELECTIONS

If you have had not the chance to vote for PTG Officers for the 2024-25 and 2025-26 school years, now is your chance! There are people who have been nominated, and you can write in your own votes if you had someone else in mind. We will announce our new PTG Officers at the Meet and Greet on May 8th at Rose Mello Hall. See you there!

CAMPUS SECURITY & FOOD DELIVERY

There has been an increase of deliveries being made to students and the delivery employees are bypassing the office. Students are not allowed to meet the delivery order on the sidewalk. All deliveries must be sent to the office. People delivering lunches should not go to the yard and try to find the students. Anyone who is not a student or an employee of St. David School is required to wear a Visitor's Pass. The office will call students to retrieve their lunches.

Delivery employees have not been screened for VIRTUS/Safe Environment, TB test, or fingerprint clearance as required by the Diocese to have interactions with our students. To prioritize safety, we kindly request packing lunches and snacks in the morning with the student. Please limit the use of 3rd party delivery. Let's work together to maintain security for our St. David students.

VOLUNTEER SIGN-UPS 👍🏽

Are you looking to fulfill some of your hours during the school day? If you have a day off here and there during the work week, you are welcome to sign-up for one (or more) of our recess or lunch duties! There are 2 slots for each "shift" so you can grab a buddy to volunteer with you or get double hours and recruit someone! Thank you to the parents who have volunteered throughout the year and for the parents who suggested doing a sign-up genius!

Reminder: Families are required to volunteer at the school for a minimum of 30 hours during the school year.  Service hours are valued at $25 per hour; therefore, the hours that are unearned by the end of the school year will be billed at that rate.  Service hours must be earned by adult family members or legal guardians.  Each volunteer must complete Virtus training (www.Virtus.org), which is good for 3 years before a renewal is necessary.  Also, any volunteer working directly with the children must have a certificate on file for TB clearance and must be cleared through Livescan. Generally, service hours will be earned beginning the first day of school, and are to be completed by June 1st of the school year.
