Together Make it Orange and Make it End!
What are your true colors when it comes to showing that you believe that all youth should be safe from bullying? We came together on Wednesday in one giant ORANGE message of hope and support, to WEAR AND SHARE ORANGE to color our nation, and even the world, visibly showing that our society believes that no child should ever experience bullying.

Pandemic Fatigue and Staying Safe
As the pandemic enters its ninth month, we’re all suffering from pandemic fatigue. To protect our loved ones, our students, and ourselves, we must continue to stay focused. In this video, Dr. Lisa Maragakis and Dean Paul Rothman discuss 4 keys to staying safe.
Thank you for your commitment to the health and safety of our entire school community...
The safety of our students, families, faculty, and staff remain our top priority. Last week, the Southern Nevada Health District completed a COVID compliance inspection. We were highly commended on our safe return to school plan, social distancing compliance, disinfecting/sanitation/hygiene practices, temperature checks, face covering mandates, parent screening tool, and adherence to Diocesan protocols.
We continue to follow all protocols from the CDC, the Southern Nevada Health District, and the Diocesan Restoration Council, including strict adherence to social distancing, hygiene, sanitizing, temperature checks, and the wearing of masks.
While pandemic fatigue tries to encourage us to go back to normal routines, we also urge our families to be vigilant regarding all health recommendations at home and particularly with respect to social gatherings. Thank you for your continued support!
A Gentle Reminder From our Bookkeeper
Report cards go out on Friday, November 13th. If your school account is not current, your child’s report card will be held until such time as it is caught up.
