Holy Family Updates
March 24, 2023
Dear HFRCS Families,
We had a great week at Holy Family! We were blessed to have some students be principal, secretary, librarian, and nurse for the day on both Tuesday and Thursday! Joey & Emily Webber did fantastic jobs as principals, Andrew & Benny Four were great being the secretaries, Dominic Pippins helped our students as the nurse, and both Cooper & Carter Rosenthal were magnificent librarians. We cannot wait until next year to see which of our students win those experiences!
The end of the year is sneaking up on us. That means we are planning for the yearbook, end of year celebrations, as well as the next school year. If you have any pictures you would like to submit for the yearbook, please put them in this Dropbox link 2022-23 - Dropbox. Please check out the upcoming dates section for our end of year celebrations and stay tuned for information regarding the 2023-2024 school year.
Grandparent’s Day is happening on Wednesday, April 5th along with Stations of the Cross. Our next mass is April 19th. May 1st is our May Procession along with mass. We would love for our families to attend if possible. All of these begin at 9:30am in St. Joe’s church.
As always, thank you for your support and dedication to Holy Family and catholic education. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
Thank you,
Mr. Elia

Healthy Kids Running Series
Healthy Kids is a five-week youth running series for girls and boys ages 2-14, designed to provide a positive and fun introduction to running. Our program is set to take place Sundays, beginning April 16, 2023 at 4:00PM at the Aston Community Center fields. Each HKRS Series takes place once a week and offers age appropriate running events including the 50 & 75 yard dashes, the 1/4 mile, the 1/2 mile and the 1 mile run. Kids compete each week for a chance to earn points. At the end of the Series the boys and girls who accumulate the most points in their respective distances are awarded trophies. All participants receive a medal on Week 5!

COVID Policy Reminder
At Holy Family, our number one priority will always be the safety of our students, staff, and families. We have seen an increase number of positive cases among students the last three days. Nothing to panic about, but we must make sure we are following proper protocols and taking necessary precautions. If we do not work together, we may be facing a mask mandate and/or possible virtual days if the numbers continue to rise.
As a reminder, our COVID Policy is below. So, please make sure you monitor for symptoms.
Everyone will follow the same procedures regardless of their vaccination status.
If you are exposed to someone who is positive with COVID-19
- There is no quarantine period, but masks will be strongly recommended.
If you live with a person(s) who has tested positive for COVID-19
- There is no quarantine period, but masks will be required. The length of time will be confirmed by Nurse Victoria.
If you test positive for COVID-19
- You must contact Nurse Victoria immediately. You will isolate for at least 5 days and be able to return after that time period if you are free of fever and your overall symptoms have improved. Nurse Victoria will confirm your return date and when you will be able to return to being mask optional.
Please do not hesitate to contact myself or Nurse Victoria if you have any questions or concerns.
