September 8, 2020There will be NO SCHOOL MASS tomorrow. Bring students directly to the school, not the church, at the regular drop-off time. Children may wear green shirts and navy pants/shorts (white shirts, jumpers, and dress shoes are not necessary).
This Friday is Red, White and Blue Day. At morning gathering, I’ll tell students a brief history of the U.S. flag and encourage them to share the reasons that they are proud to live in America. Students are not required to wear school uniforms-they are encouraged to wear predominantly red, white and blue. Students can wear t-shirts, sweatshirts, dresses, jeans, shorts, skirts, etc. Black shoes and white socks are not required. Casual Day dress code still applies. No hoodies, tank tops, sandals, flip-flops, boots, hats, or makeup. Skirts/shorts must extend to the top of the knee when standing. Students who don't wish to participate may wear their normal school uniforms.
At this point, our grades 3-4-5 students are scheduled to return to in-person school on Tuesday, September 15. Thank you to all parents and family members for their support and understanding during this brief quarantine.
Friday, September 18, is a Casual Dress Day. We ask that each student bring one or more boxes of granola bars to benefit the Deacon’s Pantry.
