Happy feast of St. Philip Benizi! Today’s orientation schedule is below:

• Transitional Kindergarten (TK) and Kindergarten (K) — 9:00am-11:00am. Feel free to come drop by any time in that window. The goal is for parents and their students to meet the teacher, get acquainted with the classroom, and get the student's desk set up.
• High School Orientation — 10:00am-12:00pm. Please arrive on time, as we want to get started promptly at 10:00am. The high school orientation is just for students, not for parents.

Tomorrow is the first day of school! Please see the map below for how the flow of traffic should work during drop off and dismissal during the school year. If you don’t already have your family carpool number, please pick it up at the front office (ideally before tomorrow).

If you haven’t already signed and returned the Handbook Signature Page and the Mask Policy and Release, please do so before school starts. They can be found below. Both are mandatory for all families in order to start school. They can also be turned in to your student’s homeroom or first period teacher tomorrow morning.

Thank you to all who came and joined us for the family picnic last night! It was a fun time for all. I’m very grateful also that we had a generous sponsor who made that event possible: a team of alumni! Graduates Benedict Kerekes and Clare De La Torre work in real estate and offered their own time, talent, and treasure to make this event possible. In addition, they donate 10% of their sales to Saint Joseph Academy! If you have any real estate needs, please consider patronizing these supporters of our school, who are also beneficiaries of the education SJA has been providing for more than 25 years.
