Dear Parents,
We hope that your child(ren) had a successful school year. We remind you that they have assigned summer reading but I urge you to encourage your children to read far more than what's on their class lists. It's the best possible preparation for future success in school. The lists of assigned reading are at the end of this letter arranged by class.
Bottle & Can Collection. We continue to collect during the summer. If you have Dot Day collections, bring them up on the first Saturday of July, the 4th.
There is a picture of last month's collection stacked to the sky in the pickup truck which comes every month. We thought we finally had him stumped, but the driver managed to get every single bag onto the truck!!
Tuition bills were given to everyone. I remind you that tuition is due in full by August 1st. If you are using the payment plan you need to be fully registered by that date. Enclosed is the enrollment form and a sheet of FAQs for those who expressed interest in using TMS for a 10 month plan.
If you would like to use this option applications are available at the school. Please call the school first to be sure someone is here .
ABSOLUTELY NO STUDENT WILL BE ALLOWED TO BEGIN SCHOOL IN SEPTEMBER IF TUITION IS NOT PAID OR YOU HAVE NOT ENROLLED IN THE TMS (TUITION MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS) PLAN.
You also received flyers from JBEdwards Uniform Company and CORI forms. These forms must be filled out each year by everyone who has any contact with children for the safety of the children.
Thank you for the privilege of teaching your children. May God keep you and your children safe, happy, and holy this summer and always.
Have a wonderful summer.
