Dear AS²A Families,

The excitement is building for Catholic Schools Week.  Students are busy researching for their History Night at the Museum projects.  Mark your calendars for Thursday, February 2nd at 6:00.  All students and families are invited to attend. Don’t miss the fun!

Dress Down Day - This Monday, January 23 is a Dress Down Day for those students who were in full uniform for the inspection on Tuesday, January 17. 

Celebrating Service and Community - We are collecting boxes of cereal during these days before Catholic Schools Week for a special service project. Please send in your donations by Friday, January 27th.  All proceeds will be shared with the MLK Center and the St. Joseph’s food pantry. 

Reminders:

• Recess - The students play outside at recess every day as long as there is no precipitation.  Please send your child to school with outdoor clothing appropriate for the temps. A warm jacket, hat, and gloves/mittens are often necessary. As always, label everything your child brings to school. We do make an exception to outdoor recess for below freezing temperatures. When the air temperature and/or temp with wind chills dip below freezing we will remain indoors and recess will be held in the classrooms. 

• Dismissal - As you can imagine, the office is very busy at the end of the day preparing for dismissal.  You can help by following the guidelines in the Student/Family Handbook which state “parents/guardians picking up children before the close of the school day are asked to inform the office of their intent prior to the actual pick up time. All phone calls regarding dismissal must be received by 2:30PM. All early dismissals must be picked up by 2:30PM. When you arrive, report to the front office, sign the child out and someone will go to your child’s classroom and escort the child back to you in the lobby.”  Thank you for helping dismissal run smoothly!

Did you know? 

We recite the AS²A mission statement every morning. Ask your child to recite it for you!

All Saints develops and nurtures in its students creative minds, healthy bodies, and ethical spirits, and instills in them wisdom, compassion, and leadership within the context of strong Catholic Christian values, centered on the life and teachings of Jesus Christ.
