Dear Parents,
Covid...Next Steps
As you know, we have a class that is out due to a positive case this week. We will continue to follow the policies and practices that have enabled us to stay open and in person (for almost everyone) for the majority of this pandemic. We are also exploring ways to continue to respond to this evolving situation. This week, the health room underwent training from an organization called Affinity that will allow onsite testing for Covid here at Blessed Sacrament. We do not anticipate routine testing for all staff and students but we will be able to randomly test school community members or target classes if there is a reason for concern. More information about this will be emailed on Monday.
Personal Safety Education
Every year we speak with the students about personal safety. These topics range from internet safety to being aware of surroundings to establishing personal boundaries and speaking to trusted adults about any uncomfortable situations. This will take place with the students over the course of the next month or so. Mrs. Matejik will be speaking with the children in K-5 and the advisors will work together to speak with the boys and girls separately in middle school. We like to let parents know about this in case your children come home with any questions and we encourage you to reach out to us if there is any way that we can support you.
The Monsignor Smyth Golf Tournament is 10 days away!!!!
Please sign up here if you are interested in playing. We have a limited number of foursomes and the golf committee reports that they are filling up quickly. Please be sure to sign up now to assure a spot in the tournament. We can’t wait to get back out again and enjoy a beautiful fall day with our BS community!
Faithfully,
Chris Kelly
