Dear SMCS Families,

Thank you for a great week before Spring Break! The students really enjoyed their field day activities.

Please know that the safety of students and staff continues to be our top priority along with keeping the school open for on-campus instruction. We need everyone's help to do this. We are all exhausted with these precautions and are aching to return to normalcy, but I ask that you remember the active role each of you plays in ensuring the continuation of on-campus instruction. Sustaining a safe environment for our school depends on our commitment to one another.

If you are traveling outside of the state of Texas during Spring Break, we ask that you provide a negative PCR COVID test before returning to school. The test should be taken once you have returned to the Houston area after your travels. Minute Maid Park offers free PCR COVID testing for those who make an appointment online, results take 24-72 hours to come back. Ascent Emergency Medical Center, 2280 Holcombe in Houston, offers the PCR test with same-day results. Their phone number is 713-821-2360.

Nurse Diaz is always available to answer any questions or concerns related to COVID.

Thank you for all your support. I hope you have a safe Spring Break!

Blessings,
Dr. Kathleen Cox
