Parents, our first quarter of school is winding down which is a great time to check in on your student’s grades in PowerSchool. Students may have missing work that they can still complete. Have your child reach out to their teachers if they need to make up work and to schedule times to make up larger assessments. All of our teachers have tutoring times posted on the Google class pages and outside their classroom doors. You will have a chance to meet with your child’s teachers at our parent teacher conferences later this month on October 20 and 21 from 3-7 pm. Be watching for more information in the next newsletters.  

I am also attaching a link to a survey. This survey will help us to better understand how you view the climate at Cardinal Ritter. Your children have already taken a similar survey, so this survey is just for you.   




In Christ’s Peace,
Kari Jost

Prayer for Students

Lord our God, in your wisdom and love you surround
us with the mysteries of the universe.
Send your Spirit upon these students and fill them

Grant that they may devote themselves to their studies

We ask this through Christ our Lord.

R/. Amen.

Parents

We have a unique day for testing some of our students. Please see the schedule below for your student and how they are impacted -

GRADES 7-9: Students will have asynchronous learning at home. Teachers will post assignments on the Google class page for students to complete.

GRADES 10-11: PSAT testing. Most students will finish at approximately noon and will be dismissed from school once testing is complete. Students with accommodations will finish at around 1:30pm and will then be dismissed.

GRADE 12: SAT testing for those who signed up. Most students will finish at approximately noon and will be dismissed from school once testing is complete. Students with accommodations will finish at around 1:30pm and will then be dismissed. Please contact the Guidance Office if you want to confirm testing for your student. If a student did not sign up for SAT testing, they will be able to use it as a college visit day.
Students might think of TikTok videos as “just” 30-seconds of “harmless” fun, but some of the most popular trends encourage dangerous behavior and make risky decisions seem harmless. 
Parents be vigilant!!!!
