Dear St. Monica Academy Families,

Red Ribbon Week (October 18 – 22) is a drug awareness and violence prevention campaign observed annually in October in the U.S.  We have created a schedule to include this anti-drug message along with anti-bully message to our students.  Here is the schedule of all of our activities for the week of October 18^th to promote these messages to our students. RedRibbonWeekScheduleSMAOct2021.pdf 

Student Absences:  Please continue to report student absences to the school office along with symptoms by 9:00 a.m. each morning.  All symptomatic individuals must remain home, regardless of vaccination status.  Families are obligated to report Covid-19 diagnoses and/or close contact cases in your household to the school office.  If symptoms last longer than 24 hours, an individual must receive a negative covid test or alternative medical diagnosis from your doctor prior to returning to school.  Please contact me if you have any questions.

Reminders

-Lost & Found Items:  We have some items that often end up in the school office “lost & found” if your family has lost articles of clothing or water bottles.  Tip: Please label all items as it is much easier to return property to the correct students.

-Facemasks:  Make sure your child brings extra facemasks to school.

Sincerely,

Ray Coleman, Principal
