WHAT A WONDERFUL SAFE RETURN TO SCHOOL!
This was a challenge that many other schools struggled to accomplish. It is a challenge gladly accepted by our faculty and staff. Our teachers have been asked to teach in two rooms and virtually at the same time. No one signed up for this "new normal"; but all have risen to the tremendous task simply because they LOVE teaching your child. Each day this week was a better day filled with God's presence and grace. We truly appreciate your patience and support as we navigate these unchartered times.
Our first week ended with a police parade for a first grade student who lost her mother, Crystal Sanchez, to cancer at the beginning of the month. It was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. We are truly blessed, back by blue, and love our SVS blue and gold!
You are not alone, I am here with you. Hebrews 13:5
Thank you PTO for a Boo Hoo Breakfast To-Go!
Please reach out to Jenaya Lisowski, PTO President at pto@stviator.org if you are able to assist this year in creatively reinventing our annual events.
Back to School BBQ in our Backyard!
We can't mask our excitement to be back!
Campus Procedures
Thank you for your patience as we continue to focus on staying well and staying in school! Each teacher went through the protocols necessary with students for our safe return and they are practicing regularly throughout the school day. The students are getting used to the new protocols and we appreciate your support!

Update on Field Trips...
We have been given permission to plan the end of the year field trips; however, we may need to reconsider in the Spring upon further guidance of the Bishop Restoration Advisory Council. Mrs. Daly reminded all families should consider purchasing travel insurance. Deposits are non-refundable.

From our Counselor...
Right Now, I AM FINE, by Daniela Owen
Read by our school counselor for our school children....
This book is a mindfully written self-help guide to aid children in dealing with stress and anxiety, by uncovering their emotions and following a simple calming routine. Teachers are watching in class; but you might want to watch with them to discuss their feelings as students return to a "new normal"
