TUITION: I congratulate and thank parents who have been faithful to tuition payments throughout the school year!
REMINDER: Registration and Educational material fees and your form for method of tuition payment plan for the 2009/2010 school year were due in March. No Facts forms will be submitted if all registration fees are not paid. If a student is not registered for 2009/2010 school year, we will assume that he/she is not returning in September. We have waiting lists in several grades and we are now accepting new registrations for next year. If you have not registered your child for 09/10 school year, it is necessary to do so immediately. It is school policy to retain a student’s report card in June if there are outstanding bills.
FIRST EUCHARIST: The Sacrament of First Eucharist was administered to many of our Grade 2 students on Sunday, May 3rd.. Congratulations to students and parents on this beautiful occasion! Special thanks to Ms. Beth for making this day very special!
