Hello St. Catherine of Siena Families!
I pray that this email finds you well and ready for our mid-winter break! We have had a lot of sickness going around the school concerning the flu, cold with fever and a stomach virus. Please remind your children to practice good hand washing techniques and to keep their hands out of their eyes, nose, and mouths. This will greatly cut down on the amount of germs being passed. Our school will get a good deep cleaning next week during break.
If your child ends up being diagnosed with the flu, please contact the office and let us know. We are keeping a close eye on the flu situation here at school.
Reminder: Please follow appropriate carpool procedures, both in the morning and afternoon while on our campus. I am seeing many families cut through the church in the mornings to cut the line. This poses a safety issue for you, your child, our parishioners and the other families. Also, please refrain from dropping your child off at the curb in the morning. For your safety and the safety of your child, we ask that you please park and the student walks across the crosswalk to the sidewalk to enter school. Families found in violation will be subject to a fine. Thank you for your cooperation in keeping our campus safe for all our families and students.
Thank you for your continued support of Catholic Education at St. Catherine of Siena.
God Bless,
Mr. Bilotta
Re-Registration Paperwork Reminder
Thank you to the many families whom have already contacted me or turned their registration paperwork into the office for the 2020-2021 school year. Tomorrow is the last day to turn in your paperwork before the price increases from $300 to $450 per child. If you have lost your paperwork, I have attached it here for your reference.
Don't forget our $300 refer a friend policy! If you refer a family to SCS and that family enrolls, is accepted, and stays through the first Trimester, you will receive a $300 tuition credit in December.
