Digital Learning Update
Thank you for the feedback on our first few days of digital learning. Our teachers have been exceeding expectations and we hope the students are having a positive experience. We have had a couple of questions about the schedule:
First, don't forget to e-mail Mr. Mauthe if your student is sick or unable to participate in a day of classes.
Second, tomorrow (Friday) is the last day of Term 3. Term 4 classes begin on Monday.
Finally, in order to make the daily schedule simpler, we are making every school day an "X Day - skinnies." The time schedule for the day can be found
here
. Remember, even Mondays are "X Day - Skinnies" unless otherwise indicated in student / parent communication.
Resources for Student Support
Parents
- our counselors have prepared
this resource
and shared it with students. It gives tips on mental and physical health during these trying times. We want to make sure you have the same information in case you need it for your student. Please reach out to your child's counselor with any concerns you might have.
Prospect Ave. Construction
On Monday, March 30, construction will begin once again on Prospect Ave. From April through May, the road in front of school will be open but you will need an alternate route from the east or west. Once summer break starts, the area in front of Xavier will be closed with only limited access.
Starting Monday, to get to Xavier from the west (Highway 41), cars will need to take Prospect Ave. (or College Ave) to Bluemound Dr., then east on Spencer St. and then south (right) on Mason St. From Mason St, a right turn on Oakcrest will bring a person back to the accessible portion of Prospect Ave.
Here's the map
.
To get to Xavier from the east (Richmond St.), drivers will need to take Prospect Ave. to Mason St, turn left on Mason St.and then turn right on Oakcrest Dr. When Oakcrest Dr. ends, turn left on Prospect Ave. and continue to Xavier.
Here's the map.
Service Hours
All underclassmen will have
the May deadline for service hours waived
this year. Students must still complete 80 hours of service (at least 20 for the parish) before graduation, but they are not required to demonstrate that they have done 20 hours during this school year.
Seniors will have their 20 hour requirement for this year waived
as well. Seniors who owe hours from previous years will be responsible for those hours before they are allowed to graduate. Contact Mr. Mauthe or Ms. Wilda with questions.
Prayer and Intentions
We will be sending out a daily morning prayer to students, link to the
Lenten Prayer Book
and prayer intentions throughout the weeks when we are closed.
I will also be sending students a video with afternoon prayer and announcements, just to keep us all connected!
Fr. Adam will be sharing his Friday morning Mass with us via video. Watch for the link on social media and in our regular communication!
If you have any questions or concerns, please
e-mail me
. I am very confident that our teachers will deliver a quality education and make the best of the weeks ahead. Join me in praying for health care workers, those suffering from the coronavirus, and all of us as we navigate this challenging time.
God bless,
Mike Mauthe
Principal
