In order for us to have a special ceremony and honor the achievement of our of St. Margaret Mary School Kindergarten students, we will be following all local, State, and Federal (CDC) guidelines that have been set forth for the containment of the COVID—19 Pandemic. The plan that follows is in accordance with Louisiana Department of Public Safety & Corrections Public Safety Services, Office of the State Fire Marshal, Interpretive Memorandum 2020-24 which sets the guidelines for Outdoor Religious and Places of Worship.
We will have limited seating for the ceremony and attendance will be limited to immediate household members only. The ceremony will be uploaded to YouTube in the same manner as the SMM morning show so other family members can view it.
All persons in attendance will be required to have on face masks that cover their mouths and noses. All persons will be required to maintain social distancing guidelines (6-foot rule) which will apply to individuals and/or households.
Families will be assigned a space with four chairs (provided for and sanitized by VOLUNTEERS). Exceptions for families who have more than four in the same house will be handled on a case by case basis. Families must call the school office (985-643-4612) and let us know if there is a special request (HOUSEHOLD size or handicap vehicle).
There will be separate seating for students who are being promoted - they are not included in your family of four number. The seating will be in a manner that will allow us to take group photos. We have a professional photographer who will take beaucoup pictures and will make them available on line. There will be no need for parents to leave their family space to take pictures.
Families must check in at the table nearest the preferred parking. Check in will begin at 9:30 AM. Please keep a safe social distance. You will receive your assigned family space. (diagram below) Students must report to the gym - no later than 9:30 AM - where they will line up in alphabetical order keeping safely distanced. The gym doors will open at 9:15 AM. Students should wear church or dressy casual clothes.
For this to be successful, we need all families to honor the household rule. Families will not be allowed to congregate before and after the ceremony.
The ceremony will be located between the Church and E-building. Recommended parking is by the Pre-K Building and in front of the church.
