A Note from the Principal
Dear Parents,
I am very happy to announce that our Centennial website is now up and running. This means that you, our current parents, as well as graduate parents and alumni, can now go
online and buy your tickets for our Centennial Gala which will take place at the Embassy Suites in Burlingame on Feb. 1, 2020. Our Centennial Steering Committee has been putting a great deal of thought and planning into making sure that this event will be a very memorable evening. In addition to buying your tickets on this site, you can also buy raffle tickets and book a room at the Embassy Suites if you are planning on spending the night there. We have been given a special room rate for this event. Be sure to check out the great vacation getaway prizes for our raffle!
Our Centennial website is: stannesf.ejoinme.org/100years
We have also created a very special on-line store: St. Anne Centennial Celebration Store. Take a minute and see what our on-line Centennial store has to offer! There are some very nice items that will help to keep this year’s memories alive, as well as keep you warm!! https://teamlocker.squadlocker.com/#/lockers/st-anne-centennial-celebration-store?_k=mf829c

VIRTUS Online Training and Fingerprints Compliance
Starting this school year, EVERY PARENT who is planning to volunteer for field trips, retreats, overnights, library, health room, reading programs, or any other school/parish activity which involves being with students, must complete the VIRTUS ONLINE training AND be fingerprinted. Please complete the course and fingerprints as soon as possible so that there are no delays with your participation in school functions. Remember to select “SCHOOL” when registering at https://www.virtusonline.org/virtus/ to help us verify your compliance.
Parents who have completed the course but have not completed fingerprints have been placed in an "Inactive" module until fingerprints are complete.
If you have any questions, please email Mrs. Perez at perez@stanne.com.
Your attention to this matter is greatly appreciated!
