- Athletes: Spring Break Info:
- As of November 1, 2019, our policy for spring break is:
- Practices taking place Friday after 5:00 p.m. until Wednesday’s practice time (after 3:00 p.m.) will be excused practices. If you miss any practices outside of those times during break you will be required to sit out for 1.5 games. Also, keep in mind you will need to have 14 practices before your first game to be eligible to play per MSHSAA rules.
Safety Update - Feb. 14-18
This week we had 1 positive case. Be assured that if your daughter could potentially be impacted by someone who tests positive, you will be informed as soon as possible. A reminder that quarantine means that students are not allowed to come to school. It also means they should not have contact with others beyond their family outside of school. We are not only trying to protect Ursuline but trying to be a part of the community solution as well.
- Numbers as they stand today (at least one dose of COVID vaccine):
- Students: 70.67%
- Co-workers: 92.0%
UV Literary Magazine-Call for Submissions!
Ursuline and Vianney are collaborating on a Literary Magazine, UV, to be published in the spring. We are accepting fiction, nonfiction, and artwork from any UA or Vianney student.

Course Selection
Parents will be able to view their daughters’ course requests for next school year beginning Thursday, February 17. They will receive directions for viewing and providing feedback.
Wellness Week
February 22-25
This year’s Wellness Week (February 22-25) will focus on phone use and social media with an emphasis on raising awareness to how these can affect our mental health. Each day the students will be encouraged to engage in conversation at lunch by putting their phones away. We are pleased to host Dr. Tim Bono, a Washington University professor, who will speak to the entire student body at an assembly on Friday. He will address how best to manage the challenge of phone/social media use in our lives.
Individual College Planning Meeting
An email was sent to junior parents with a link to schedule an individual college planning meeting for you and your daughter. During this meeting, we will discuss goals, college options, potential majors, testing plans, applications, scholarships / financial aid, and any other questions you may have regarding college admission. Please contact your daughter’s counselor if you have any questions.
