News for the Week of 3/3/21

 


March School Mass will be held on Tuesday, March 9th.  As has been our custom this year, some students will attend Mass in the Church with the remainder participating via livestream.  At this time, parents may not attend school Mass to comply with health and safety guidelines.

Second Trimester report cards will be available on the Educonnect Parent Portal at the end of the school day on Friday, March 12. Please remember that no paper copy of the report card will be sent home.

School will be CLOSED on Wednesday, 3/24/21.


Moving Up Day & Knight - As we look ahead to next year, we are excited to share that we will be hosting a series of Moving Up Knight virtual sessions to give parents a chance to learn more about next year's curriculum.  Each session will be hosted by Mrs. Chagnon and the homeroom teacher and will include a brief presentation and a chance for Q&A.  Each session will be 30 minutes long and zoom links will be emailed prior to the sessions.  Mark your calendars for the following:

Monday, March 8th: Kindergarten - 6:30pm 
                                  1st Grade -      7:10pm 

Tuesday, March 9th: 2nd Grade- 6:30pm
                                 3rd Grade - 7:10pm 

Wednesday, March 10th: 4th Grade- 6:30pm
                                         5th Grade- 7:10pm 

Thursday, March 11th: 6th Grade- 7:20 pm
                                     7th Grade- 6:40 pm 
                                     8th Grade- 6:00 pm 

Monday, March 15th: PreKindergarten - 6:30 pm

Moving Up Day activities for students will also take place during the school day this year. While traditionally Moving Up Day allows the children to visit next year's grade and classroom, this year, teachers will instead go down to visit the students' current classroom to introduce themselves, talk to the students about what next year will bring and do a short activity.  This will take place in mid-March. 





It's Time to Complete Your Enrollment for 21-22!  Your response is due NLT Friday, 3/19/21.
Family Enrollment Packets were sent out via email  Friday, February 26th.  Those planning to re-enroll are requested to return the signed Family Enrollment Agreement, the $250 Family Enrollment Fee and next year's iPad Coverage Agreement and $50 fee NLT Friday, March 19th.  This year, given current health and safety guidelines, we must firmly adhere to the return dates specified in order to plan for seating for next year.  Failure to return your signed Family Enrollment Agreement and Fee by 3/19/21, will indicate that your family is not planning to return to SMS for the 21-22 school year and that your child(ren)'s seat(s) are available to another applicant(s). Families that may have special circumstances affecting their ability to re-enroll by the requested date should contact Mrs. Williamson.
