MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL Dear St. Agnes School Parents, Welcome to the month of April and back to school!! I hope that you and your children enjoyed the beautiful Easter break. The weather was certainly lovely - perfect to be outside and enjoy it. Now we’re back for our final six weeks of school. Can you believe that???? I didn’t think this year would go by as fast as it has but it has flown!!! Our 7th grade class has been busy with their annual flower sale. There are many hanging baskets and flower packs from which to choose. Any of these make very nice Mother’s Day gifts, which is right around the corner :). If you wish to place an order, just print out the order form that is attached to this newsletter, fill it out and return it to the office with payment by Wednesday, April 21. Proceeds go toward the 7th graders’ activities that will take place during their 8th grade year. St. Agnes Virtual Auction The 2021 St. Agnes Virtual Auction, which will take place Monday, April 26 thru Saturday, May 1, is underway! Stay tuned to our Facebook page for pictures of our featured baskets we have ready to be auctioned off. More information about this event will be in next week’s newsletter and will be going home with your child(ren) soon. Tuition Assistance Families who are in need of Tuition Assistance for the 2021-2022 school year can complete the forms online at https://online.factsmgt.com/aid. If this is the first time that you have utilized this service, you will first need to create an account. After that is completed, you’ll then follow the steps to complete the forms. There is a deadline of May 1 to have your application processed. May Crowning On Friday, April 30 our first graders will lead us in our annual May Crowning that honors Mary as Jesus’ mother and the mother of us all. We will also honor our eighth graders with the presentation of their class ribbons. This presentation marks the beginning of the final activities that will surround their concluding days at St. Agnes School for our twenty 2021 graduates. The May Crowning will begin at 10:30 a.m. in the Church. Because of capacity limitations in the Church, only the parents of our 8th graders will be able to attend. We will live stream this service on the Parish Facebook page for our other classes and parents to view. SCRIP Program The SCRIP program for this year ends on Friday, April 30th. On May 1st the program begins anew and what is expended will be credited toward the 2021-2022 school year. Please be aware of the $2,000 total purchase that families were asked to commit to or the $125 buy-out option that could be chosen instead of purchasing SCRIP. The money that is made from 2
SCRIP and other fundraisers sponsored by the Parents’ Club is put back into programs for your children and the school. Confirmation/First Communion There will be one more opportunity this school year to celebrate the Sacraments of Confirmation and First Communion at St. Agnes Parish with Fr. Dan. This has been scheduled for Sunday, April 18 at the 11:00 a.m. Mass. If any third graders still need to receive the Sacraments of Confirmation/First Communion or any fourth thru eighth graders still need to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation, please use this linkhttps://www.signupgenius.com/go/9040A4FA5AF2FAAFB6-april to make a reservation for this date. After April 18, those that are still in need of receiving the sacrament(s) will have to do so at the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception. More information regarding this can be obtained from Mrs. Becker. Second Grade Confirmation/First Eucharist Retreat The first Confirmation/First Eucharist Retreat for our second graders will be held on Saturday, April 17 from 2:00 - 5:30 p.m. (this includes attending the 4:30 p.m. Mass) in the Parish Center. Because of Covid precautions, this retreat is limited to each child and 1 adult parent/sponsor. Please use the Sign-up Genius link to register: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/9040A4FA5AF2FAAFB6-sacrament1. Spring Pictures Spring pictures have arrived and the packet of them was sent home with your child before Easter break. If you wish to keep any of the photos, please follow the instructions included in the packet so that you may pay for them online. Keep enjoying this beautiful weather with which we’ve been blessed. If it continues the students can look forward to eating lunch outside again :). That’s all for now. Until next week . . . . . Blessings to you all, Mrs. Cunningham 3
ABSENTEES Each parent/guardian is required to notify the school office if a child will be absent that day. Homework requests may be made at this time for absences. Parents should call the school office prior to 8:30a.m. and may leave a message on the school answering machine if the secretary cannot be reached. An email may also be sent to Pam Kink, School Secretary (pkink@stagnescatholicschool.org). A call or email should be made each day the student is absent, unless it is known that the child will miss several consecutive days. If such is the case, the school can be informed with the first phone call/email of the consecutive absence and the reason. LATE ARRIVALS & EARLY DISMISSALS Each parent/guardian is required to notify the school office if a child will be arriving late or leaving early for an appointment. A written note in advance of the appointment is to be sent to the school office through the teacher for the release of a student from school for doctor, dental or other appointments. Emails may be sent to the teacher and to Mrs. Pam Kink (pkink@stagnescatholicschool.org) as well. A parent must personally pick up the child at the school office. A student must check in at the school office upon returning from an appointment to get an admit slip to return to class. REMOTE ATTENDANCE If your child must remain home for a period of up to 14 days due to being quarantined (and they’re feeling well and are able to complete school work), please utilize the following Remote Learning Daily Attendance Google form link (https://bit.ly/remoteattendance) to sign them into school for remote learning (even if working offline) by 8:30 a.m. the mornings that they are gone.
