Extended Day Program-(EDP)
Our Extended Day Program (EDP) is growing! With the increase enrollment of students in the program, we will be moving location on campus. Starting Tuesday, September 4, 2018 the EDP will move to the west wing of campus in the Pre-K 3 room and Library. All pickups from the EDP will now be on the west wing doors, closest to the parish office. Please call the front office if you have any questions or need further instructions about the move of EDP. Look for signs the first week to help you!
Dress Code Warning
The dress code grace period is still in effect until October 8th, but starting after Labor Day, students may receive a Dress Code Warning. This is just to let our scholars and their parents know now that there may be some dress code corrections that may need to be made as we move closer to the end of our grace period. Things like the wrong colored shoes, no belts, or the wrong uniform would all be examples of why a scholar might receive a dress code warning. If your scholar receives a warning, please note he/she is NOT in trouble….it really is just to let you and them know what needs to be fixed before our grace period ends. As always, our goal is to maintain a campus of excellence. “Look good, feel good, be good” starts with our appearance and how we carry ourselves as Catholics and scholars.
