Free Dress Passes Distributed
For Catholic Schools Week Student Appreciation: Your children received free dress passes for Student Appreciation Day this week. There is NOT a designated day to use these passes; they can be used any time before the end of the year. Students need to keep the pass and submit it to their homeroom teacher when they come dressed out of uniform. #1 Uniform Offense: please double check the expectations for girls – no leggings that don’t have a long shirt/dress covering to the mid-thigh. Middle school girls have done a great job with this expectation – thank you! Students wear school uniforms to Mass, so please schedule to use the pass on a day that your child does not attend Mass in person.
For First Trimester AR Goals: Several students were awarded a free dress pass with the end of 1st trimester for achieving their AR goal in reading. The pass says that Sister Dominic will designate a date. Please cross that off and use the pass as a free-dress pass on a day of your choice (not a Mass day please). Many of you have already used these. We have the same incentive for end of second trimester for those who meet and exceed their AR goals. Keep reading!
Registration and Instructional Fees for 2021-2022
Thank you for submitting your online student enrollments for the 2021-2022 school year. There have been a few questions regarding payment of registration and general fees. We will bill these fees through the Incidental Fees Billing function in FACTS. Some of you have used this for payment of athletic fees and/or the school milk program during the current school year. Once the fees are processed this month, you will receive an email from FACTS advising you of the amount due and the due date. You have the opportunity to authorize a withdrawal at that time. If authorizations have not been made by the due date, your payment will automatically be withdrawn via ACH after two weeks.
If, after receiving your email, you need to request a change in the withdrawal date, or to make different payment arrangements, please email Joyce Haberkorn, jhaberkorn@svdpk8.com. Any request for an adjustment must be made a week prior to the established due date in order to allow for processing time. Thank you.
