Hi St. Joseph Families,
I hope you are all well, safe, and healthy. I am attaching a letter with information about next year. The contract, scholarship application, and 2020-21 school calendar are also attached. Please read the letter first.
Although we do not know what next year will look like, yet. I promise you I am working to make sure your child is receiving the education you are expecting from our school, as well as the safety precautions necessary to keep your child and your family safe and healthy.
There are a few changes that will take place once we are able to return to our school building. The teacher professional learning community(PLC) time that was previously designated for Fridays at 2pm will be changing. This comes with a lot of thought and discussion with our school commission.
In order to use our education time wisely and give our students more time in the classroom, we have moved the PLC time to once a month with a late start on the first Tuesday of each month, starting in October. On the specified Tuesdays school will start at 10am. Teachers will be required to be at school working in their PLC from 7:45-9:45am. Please look at the school calendar for specific dates. Before school care will still begin at 7:15am, and there will still be 1 hour of free childcare. More details about the late start days are coming soon.
I appreciate you and your commitment to your child's education! Please know I am praying for you and all our families.
St. Elizabeth Ann Seton, pray for us.
St. Raphael, pray for all those in the medical field.
St. Joseph, pray for us.
Peace and all things good,
