Dear St. Anne Parents,

Happy New Year to all our St. Anne Families. We know this year is going to be a great year for everyone.

On Monday, January 4, we welcomed back our fourth grade teacher, Mrs. Candice Sturges, after her maternity leave. Welcome back, Candice, we are happy you are back!

We are currently scheduling screening appointments for students who have applied to our school for next year. If you have a child who is ready to start Kindergarten next year or transfer in to another grade from another school, please be sure to complete and turn in our school application which can be found on our website or call Mrs. Finnegan in the office and she will send one out to you.

I hope everyone enjoyed our Dec. 17 Christmas Program and the little treats sent home to our families. I know how much time and effort went into putting the program together...so I want to send out our very special thanks to our creative and energetic music teacher, Laura Flaviani! Great job.

Our mid-year point is coming up. The first semester will end on January 15. The MSP Parent Portal will close this Friday, January 8. Report cards will be sent home on Thursday, January 21, for the students here in the building. Directions for the parents of Distance Learning students will be in next week's Newsletter.

If you have a child who will be starting Kindergarten next year, please fill out his/her application and send it to Mrs. Finnegan as soon as possible. If you know of a parent who is looking for a great school for his/her child(ren) next year, please send our tour schedule on to them. For questions, call the school office at (415) 664-7977. Remember, our parents are our best advertisers! Thank you.

Students attending in-school learning must have a "Student Daily Health Screening Form" filled out BEFORE entering the school building. Your child will not be allowed into the building until the form is completed. This policy is required by the SFDPH. The form can be downloaded from this newsletter or from the school website at www.stanne.com located under "Parent Resources".
