Dear St. Francis de Sales Parish School Families,
I hope you’re enjoying a relaxing summer. The start of the new school year is several weeks away, but I want to share with you many of the happenings here at St. Francis de Sales Parish School.
I’m excited to share that two new teachers have joined our staff! Please join me in welcoming Audrey Klein, our new Kindergarten teacher, and Lindsey Stowell, our new 5th grade teacher, to the St. Francis de Sales Parish School community. Both bring enthusiasm and experience, and I am confident they will be great additions to our team. More information and introductions about them will be shared as the school year gets closer, but I wanted to let you know of this exciting news!
Our Welcome Back Social: Slides, Scoops, & Smiles event is scheduled for Wednesday, August 13, from 6:00 pm to 7:30 pm. It will feature a blessing ceremony for our new playground equipment that was purchased by our Home and School Association , a family meet-and-greet for both new and returning families and an introduction to the “new old” principal. An ice-cream truck will also be there because, as you know, ice cream makes everything better. Everyone is invited to attend. If you’re out of town or unavailable, no worries at all; we understand summer schedules can be tricky!
We are proceeding with Ready, Set, Goal, our before-school parent-student-teacher conferences. This event is a great chance to meet your child’s teacher, learn about the curriculum, ask questions, and share information about the upcoming school year. All new and returning students are expected to attend with a parent or guardian. Ready, Set, Goal will be held on Thursday, August 21, from 1:20 to 8:00 pm. Sign-up details for conferences will be sent in early August. We also plan to reschedule Back-to-School Night for early September.
That’s it for now. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.
