Internet Safety Meeting is Monday night - we look forward to seeing you there.




Parent Meeting regarding Internet Safety is Monday night at 7pm in the Parish Center  - We  have arranged for Officer Dunne from the Simsbury Police Department to join us to discuss internet safety.  Due to the importance of this topic and its direct impact on our children, we are asking that you consider attendance at this meeting a mandatory commitment for at least one parent/guardian from each family.  Middle school students are encouraged to attend as well.

March Parent/Teacher Conferences - Sign up for these conferences will be available at the Internet Safety Meeting.  March Parent/Teacher Conferences are scheduled for Monday, 3/18, Tuesday, 3/19, Thursday, 3/21 and Friday, 3/22.  School is closed on Wednesday, 3/20 for the annual Diocesan Faculty Retreat.  School will be dismissed at 12:45 on each of these days and there will be no Prekindergarten Enrichment or Aftercare. Unlike the Fall Parent/Teacher conferences, these conferences are not required for all students.  Conference times will be assigned to those families that signup for a conference slot.  If you do not sign up for a conference, none will be assigned to you.  If you do not sign up and your child's teacher feels a conference is necessary, he/she will contact you to arrange a conference day and time.  Parents with students in Mrs. Raymond's Honors Math & Algebra I classes, please be aware that Mrs. Raymond will be available for conferences in person at SMS on Monday (3/18) and Tuesday (3/19).  She is not available on Thursday, 3/21 and is only available during the first conference rotation on Friday, 3/22, from 1:30 2:20, via SKYPE.
