St. Catharine School Families:
Although we are just under a month until we return for full days, we will only have eight more days of Hybrid (AM/PM) Learning left. We are currently making preparations for full-time in-person learning and will be in consistent communication with our families over the next month.
If you have any questions about the next phase in our learning model, please submit them here.
If you are traveling during Spring Break, please be safe. Enjoy your time together as a family. As we know, our decisions can have an effect on our entire school community, so please be careful. Wear a mask, stay outside, and keep your distance so we can finish the year strong.
St. Joseph, Guardian of the Redeemer and Terror of Demons, Pray for us.
Yours in Christ,
Mark Watts
