Dear SCBA Families,
Teacher appreciation week is coming up on May 6-10. If you would like to donate to help supply treats for our wonderful staff, please send in your donations by May 10th. Thank you for your support!
As we near the end of the year, we are still battling illnesses with our scholars. Please be aware that we are seeing an increased number of children with stomach and intestinal viruses. Please make sure that you let us know and that you keep your child home for at least 24 hours if they experience diarrhea and/or vomiting. This virus has presented both with and without a fever. Thanks for your help!
The deadline for enrollment in our Summer Extended Care Program is May 1st. Please sign up prior to May 1st to allow us ample time to hire staff, arrange schedules, and field trips.
As we wrap up the final few weeks of school we will have several events for families to attend. Read below for more information on our end of year activities.
Tuesday (4/30) the ZooMobile will visit beginning at 9:00 AM.
Please join us for our May Crowning Mass on 5/2 at 9:00 AM. This is a beautiful SCBA tradition where two of our 8th grade scholars will help us honor Mary and celebrate May as the month of Mary by crowning the Mary statue in the Sanctuary. Mass will be followed by a processional to Mary's prayer garden where our scholars will crown Mary again and hold a prayer service. All are welcome to attend and help us honor the Blessed Mother.
May 3rd will be our final recitation showcase at 10:00 AM. That will also be an early release day.
You are also invited to join us on May 9th for another SCBA tradition, Passing of the Light. This special ceremony after the morning Mass features the graduating 8th graders passing the light of their faith and leadership to the 7th graders as they prepare to be our school leaders for the 2024-25 academic year.
Our 8th grade scholars will celebrate the Mass of graduation at 6:00 PM on Thursday, May 9th.
May 10th is field day! We need volunteers to help run games and activities. An email was sent out with the link to sign up. Volunteers are needed from 12:30-2:30 and must be at least 18 and cannot be a high school student.
Come party with us at 5:00 PM in the school parking lot on May 10th. Please see the flyer in the newsletter for more information.
The last day of school is May 15th. Parents are invited to join us for a school talent show at 8:15 in the school gym. Followed by the end of school Mass at 11:00 AM. School will end at 12:00 PM.
I hope to see many of you at our upcoming events!
Blessings,
Candace Stracener
