Principal's Message
Dear SFX Family,
Thank you to the Men's Club for a delicious crawfish boil and to all those who supported them!
I look forward to our school celebrating Masses and the washing of the feet together tomorrow. As we continue through Holy Week, I pray that you feel the the presence of God and commitment to our faith in Jesus.
Have a blessed and happy Easter!
May God bless you and keep you,
Jessica

REMINDERS
- Hang your name sign from your rear view mirror for the entirety of carpool so that all staff can see the name. Hint: A pants hanger works great!
- Siblings & Carpools are dismissed from the yard.
- Single Riders are dismissed from Betz Pl. Please go to your usual location even if a sibling is sick or out of school. The students are used to going to their designated side.
- If anyone in your immediate family tests positive, please notify Ms. Dwyer immediately. You can call the school, 833-1471, or email if after hours.
- Students should be kept home if they have any symptoms and their doctor should be consulted. Please do not assume it is allergies or a cold or send them to school after giving medication.
Early Check-Outs
Thank you for your support and cooperation in this matter.
