Safety Update - Feb. 22-26
This week we have had no students test positive for Covid-19. Be assured that if your daughter could potentially be impacted by someone who tests positive, you will be informed as soon as possible. A reminder that quarantine means that students are not allowed to come to school, it also means they should not have contact with others beyond their family outside of school. We are not only trying to protect Ursuline but trying to be a part of the community solution as well.
Ursuline Academy Summer Camps
Registration is now open for our Ursuline Summer Camps, and we are looking to spread the word. This year, we are excited to have partnerships with the YMCA, COCA, Saint Louis Chess Club and Bricks 4 Kidz Summer Camps, in addition to our athletic camps! Camps will be available for children and teens in grades Pre-K through 12th grade with the option to participate in multiple camps. Please share our Summer Camp webpage using the hashtag #UASummer2021
