HFRCS Newsletter Summer Edition
July 12, 2022 - Vol.1 Issue 45
From the Principal's Office
Dear Parents and Guardians,
I hope that everyone is enjoying a safe and relaxing summer so far! It is hard to believe that we are already halfway through the month of July!
Just a few reminders…
- Our H&S is sponsoring two Swap Shop nights for our families. They will be held on Wednesday, July 27 from 4:30 PM to 6:30 PM and on Thursday, August 18 from 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM. Please stop by the Large Hall and check out the uniforms we have available.
- Should you need to order uniforms, it is always best to contact Flynn & O’Hara sooner than later. Don’t wait until August to order the uniforms you need, as they may not arrive in time for school. Likewise for gym uniforms, reach out to Kampus Klothes to order your necessary gym uniforms so they are ready for the start of the school year.
- Our H&S is also sponsoring a night at Rita’s Water Ice for Holy Family students and families next Wednesday, July 20! Go enjoy a delicious water ice and help the H&S raise funds!
- Make sure your child is working on their summer reading and math packets – don’t wait until the last minute! Anyone needing a copy of their math or ELA packets, please contact the school.
- Supply Lists are also posted on the school website.
- During these summer months of vacations and relaxation, please don’t forget to continue weekly Mass. It is very important to maintain the faith formation of our students during the summer as well as during the school year!
Continue to enjoy these summer days!
Sincerely Yours in Christ,
Mrs. Haggerty

FACTS Student Information System (SIS)
FACTS SIS will be used by parents to view classes, student grades, and attendance. We will provide new parent access and login information by September.
Note: This is the first newsletter sent out via the new FACTS SIS. The recipients of this newsletter are families from the 2021-2022 school year. Please bear with us as we are in the process of updating the FACTS SIS families database (adding and removing) for the 2022-2023 school year.

Don’t miss out on locations, times, and dates - register to be notified of all the details! https://bciu.formstack.com/forms/fab_lab_summer_fun_2022
What is the Mobile Fab Lab?
The Bucks IU Mobile Fab Lab is a transit van that contains equipment and standards-aligned lessons/ activities to engage students in grades 1-8 in digital fabrication and computer science learning. The Mobile Fab Lab visits schools for one-week residencies during the school year, engages teachers in professional learning on the topics of computer science and digital fabrication, and also collaborates with community organizations (like the libraries!) to bring the Fab Lab out in the community.
See attached flyer for details.
From the Enrollment Office
I hope each and every one of our families has had an amazing summer up to this point! Enjoy these last few weeks with as much sun and fun as possible.
For those who are interested, we are still conducting tours of the school throughout the summer by appointment. Tours can be scheduled from 9:00 AM - 2:00 PM, Monday-Thursday, by contacting the Enrollment Office. Please encourage friends and family who are thinking about changing schools to consider Holy Family! While seating may be limited, we are still enrolling in most grades so don't wait!
