Dear Parents and Guardians,
Thank you for attending our 2nd General Parent meeting! I appreciated all of your positive attitudes and active participation. Thank you to all who met with their PLC leads that night. We will need your help for the coming months and will be reaching out to you for the 2/29 Special Persons’ Dance. As we prepare for our upcoming WASC/WCEA 2020 accreditation visit from 3/24-3/26, your feedback and input will help improve our school and will be a part of our strategic plan moving forward. This is OUR school and the amount of work we put in directly affects our children. The slideshow presentation is posted on our website with the PLC descriptions and leads on them. The leads may reach out to you, but it is your responsibility to respond to be able to earn your service hours. We will also send emails re: other opportunities to earn hours by donating gift cards for school needs. If you choose this route, please buy Scrip through the school and donate the gift cards so you can earn double credit.
Our last parent meeting is May 7 at 6:30pm in the Hall. Re-Registration begins on 2/18 and 2/19 for next school year. Open Enrollment begins March 3, 2020.
Students should come to school in their Formal Mass uniform on 2/14, Valentine’s Day. They can wear pink and red shirts on Thursday. In addition, next week, we celebrate the Birthday of our Presidents. There will be NO SCHOOL on Monday, 2/17 due to the holiday. Pre-sale tickets for our Silent Disco on 2/29 begins today. You can pick up tickets in the office the week of the event or at will call at the door.
Mrs. Grey, Principal
