Corner
Welcome back to everyone. We hope that your Spring Break was relaxing and rejuvenating, and that everyone is ready to finish up the year with great enthusiasm and success. This year has flown by! It seems like we just got started, and here we are at Easter already.
This is Holy week, a time to remember the greatest gift that Jesus gave us; His life for our sins. We invite everyone to join us this evening at 7:00 pm in the Church for the Living Stations of the Cross presented by the 8th Grade Class with the support of the 7th Grade class as the Living Curtain. This will be repeated tomorrow morning at 9:30 am for the children of the school. Remember that we have dismissal at 1:00 and 1:15 pm on Good Friday.
We have a report from the School Uniform Task Force. This group, consisting of student, teacher, School Commission, and parent representatives and the principal, met to discuss the St. Pius X uniform They conducted two surveys, one for parents on-line through Survey Monkey.com and one for students from 2-8 grades. These efforts indicated overall satisfaction with the uniform as it is. A few changes will be instituted for next year as a result of these discussions.
- Socks may be either athletic length or crew length. They must be plain, solid white, black, gray, or navy blue.
- Belts must be worn at the Middle School level
- Clear nail polish only will be permitted at school.
- New uniform sweatshirts will be available next year; one for elementary levels and one for Middle School. Design has not yet been chosen but will be available in the fall
- The number of spirit days will be considered and possibly increased.
Some families have expressed several concerns about Schoolbelles. In particular they are unhappy with the hours of operation and with the length of time it takes to receive things that must be ordered. As a result, we are looking into using Land’s End as a vendor. All uniform clothing that you have already purchased will still be worn.
We would like to thank all of those on the Uniform Task Force. Special thanks to Mike Knapp, the chairman who is also a member of the School Commission Executive Board, for organizing and collating all of the survey information.
Remember to continue to pray for each other,
—Bill and Theresa
