Principal's Message
Dear SFX Family,
Thank you so much to all who were able to come out to the work day on Saturday for the church and school. Many projects were accomplished, and it was a great community time.
Both Field Days were filled with fun - even with a little bit of rain! Thank you for making water balloons, sending snacks, and more!
Tomorrow begins exams for our 7th Grade students as they count down their final days. Please keep them in your prayers. This Friday we will celebrate Mary with May Crowning. We will also celebrate our First Communicants on Saturday. May God bless them!
Lastly, please remember that this Thursday is an early dismissal day with no aftercare for our Faculty and Staff meeting.
DISMISSAL: Please do not line up early. This creates a line into the neighborhood and down Metairie Rd. which then causes issues with the neighbors. 2:50 PM is the earliest a line can begin to form. Please inform anyone who may pick up for you. Thank you.
Have a great rest of the week!
May God bless you and keep you,
Jessica

- Single Riders are dismissed from Betz Pl. Please go to your usual location even if a sibling is sick or out of school. The students are used to going to their designated side.
- If anyone in your immediate family tests positive, please notify Ms. Dwyer immediately. You can call the school, 833-1471, or email if after hours.
- Students should be kept home if they have any symptoms and their doctor should be consulted. Please do not assume it is allergies or a cold or send them to school after giving medication.
