Meeting for Current Parents and Community Members on Tuesday, March 10 at 5:45pm in the CHURCH. Please send at least one representative from each family. Please arrive early to find parking. There will be several events at St. George that evening.

It was a close game but the St. George Knights won the CYO Basketball Championship! Great job team! Stop by the office to see the beautiful trophy and championship banner.

Big thanks to the team, the parents and families of our players, our Athletic Director Mr. Serrano, and Coach Mike. Way to go St. George!

Please mark your calendars for STEM Camp here at St. George from July 14 - July 24. In partnership with the University of Notre Dame this camp will be available to students who have just completed grades 5, 6, and 7. The topic of the camp is Anatomy and Physiology. Students must be registered through the enrollment link...coming soon.

I want to encourage all students to participate in the hot lunch program! The food is delicious and freshly prepared. Call or stop by the office if you would like some more information.

Having a dedicated space to study and complete homework is a good habit to develop in our students. We have extra students desks for sale for $10. If you are interested in taking home a beautiful student desk in good condition (worn but not broken), please call the office. We have too many in storage!

This year, all families are asked to create an online profile for FACTS. All of your payment history and payments credited will be posted there. We will no longer issue monthly statements for each family. If you need a report for the end of the year, you can print your own from FACTS.

If you are having trouble paying early in the month, we can adjust your payment date to another day in the SAME month. We need three business days to make changes to your account.

The application for SEEDS and St. George Tuition Assistance is open and available through FACTS. We encourage everyone to apply. Please gather your tax information for 2018 (not 2019). The deadline to apply for tuition assistance was February 28 but we may be able to secure more funding after the deadline.

In February, we will open up the enrollment application for next year and begin collecting registration fees. For next year, the only way to enroll or pay tuition is through FACTS (credit card or bank account). Payments will not be collected in our school office.

Why did we switch to FACTS?

1) I felt uncomfortable collecting so much money through our office. It became a concern for our safety.

2) Our accounting records were affected. With the previous system, your cash/checks passed through six different people between our school and church staff - too many! By using FACTS, there are fewer chances of error and our families control the information. Our families can login and view their payment history. Our families can make payments online even when the office is closed.

3) Our school is absorbing the cost of using FACTS. You pay nothing extra except....

*If your payment doesn't go through, you receive an insufficient fund fee that is paid to FACTS (we don't see that money- it stays with FACTS)

**If you use a credit card to pay tuition, you will be charged a credit card fee EACH time. You can avoid these fees by using a bank account instead of a credit card.
