Dear Parents,
What a good week this was. It was great to see that we had over 100 parents view our Living Rosary on Monday and Thursday. Run-a-thon was so much fun! The students had a great time also. A Big Thank you goes out to Kim Diaz for all her help. Please check out our photo gallery below.
I cannot tell you how important it is for you to attend Parent Teacher Conferences next week. If you are unable to attend, please email your student’s teachers to set up a virtual meeting. Parent involvement is a key component for academic success. Please sign up here and make sure to bring your student with you.
Freshman Parents: Beginning November 9th, we will bring our freshmen back to school 4 days per week. Parents still wanting a remote option can do so. We will continue to not have students in the building on Wednesday unless it is for academic support or testing.
8th Grade Parents: We are sorry to have to announce that it has been recommended that all schools not hold overnight field trips this year. We will credit the trip fee back to your account which was not reflected in your statement that was mailed today.
Fall break begins next Friday October 23rd through Monday October 26th. The Main Office, Business Office and Advancement Office will be open from 9:00 AM until 1:00 PM. There will not be a newsletter on Friday, October 23rd.
Have a great weekend!
God Bless,
Mrs. Hoy

Parents, if your child should be in school, but is staying home for any reason, we need you to call the office. We are also asking that you share the reason that your child is at home. Due to the pandemic, we are asking that students who are sick remain home until they have been symptom free for five days. If a child has tested positive for Covid 19, we are asking that they quarantine for 14 days and are symptom free for 5 days before returning. Please communicate with the school office if your child or a family member living in your household has tested positive. |
