Please remember you must be Virtus trained to volunteer at our school in any capacity. We will not be offering Virtus here again this year but you can take it anywhere in the Diocese. Go to Virtus.org, set up an account and the locations are listed. Zoom sessions are no longer an option.

Paperwork for September will be coming home soon.
Children in Kindergarten, Grades 1, 3, 5, and 7 must have a current physical on file. 
Physicals are good for 1 year only. Athletes must have a current physical every year.

There are immunization requirements for grades 6 and 7.

All 6 graders who are 11 must have the Tdap vaccine by the first day of school. If your child is not 11, they must receive the vaccine as soon as they turn 11.

All students entering grade 7 must have the Meningitis vaccine by the first day of school.

There are no exceptions to this. Public Health Law requires all students to be fully immunized to attend school.
If your child is not due for a physical, please call your doctor's office and ask for an immunization only appointment.

Students who are not fully immunized will not be allowed to attend school. Philosophical exemptions are not allowed.
This is Public Health Law 2164.

A friendly reminder to please keep sick children at home.
 Children must be symptom free for 24 hours without medication in order to return to school.
If they are on an antibiotic, they must be on it for 24 hours before returning to school.
Please let us know if they are going to be out of school and let us know the reason why. 
If you are unsure if you should keep your child home, please do not hesitate to call me.

Medication cannot be brought in by a child. It must be in its original container and brought in by an adult. All medication- over the counter and prescription- requires a written prescription from the doctor and written permission from a parent or guardian.

We are a nut free school. This includes Nutella and granola bars with nuts.
We try to encourage healthy eating. Please no candy or soda.
Please try to pack a healthy lunch for your child.

As always, I appreciate your cooperation!
