Family Handbook, II School Policies, B. Punctuality/Lateness

Punctuality is crucial to your child’s success. A student who is consistently on time has the advantages of preparation for work and a positive attitude toward the school day.

• Students may arrive as early as 7:40 a.m. Students who are enrolled in the CARES Program may arrive as early as 7:00 a.m. (Please see the “CARES Program” section of this Handbook for more information about CARES arrival and dismissal.)
• A student in Grades K-8 is considered late if he or she is not present in homeroom by 7:55 a.m. and must report to the office for a late slip in order to be admitted to class. Pre-Kindergarten students are expected in class by 8:10 a.m.
• Lateness will be recorded. Students must present a note from the parent to the office for lateness. All lateness will be recorded. The parent or guardian of a student who is chronically late, that is five times per trimester, will warrant a letter from the Principal reminding the parent/guardian of the school’s attendance policy, and will receive after-school detention.
• An accumulation of three lateness will result in demerit(s).

As your favorite Christmas songs begin to play on every radio station and in every retail store, we are reminded of the hustle and bustle during the Most Wonderful Time of the Year. We take time to be thankful for all the blessings we have received this past year, which is quickly followed by the bargains and deals of Black Friday and Cyber Monday. However, on a day when there is a global generosity movement, we take a break to give back to those communities and organizations that make a difference in our lives.

The Giving Tuesday Challenge is a chance for YOU to spread Christmas cheer to Holy Family Regional Catholic School. This year, Holy Family will celebrate this global generosity movement with a timeless Christmas song with a twist of Holy Family spirit,

The Thirteen Days of Giving Challenge

Holy Family Regional Catholic School has provided hundreds of students with a quality Catholic education. Since our school opened its doors, Holy Family Regional Catholic School gave to families 13 years of inspiring challenging, and nurturing students leading to one incredible faith-based community that continues to grow through your support. (Something worth well more than 5 Golden Rings).

Will you please consider a gift of any size between November 29th and December 11th? As we celebrate our 13th anniversary, we hope to receive gifts of $13.00 to honor each year we’ve operated, perhaps even $26.00 to show investment in the next 13 years of Holy Family. As we near the holiday season, please keep our school on the gift list. No gift is too small and every act of kindness helps Holy Family to keep “Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree”. Let’s make Giving Tuesday 2022 the most wonderful time of the year! Thank you for your continued support.
