Parent Resources
Welcome back! We hope you all had a wonderful Christmas break enjoying time with family and celebrating the birth of our Savior. We want to remind you to read through this and every edition of the Faith Footnotes. This is our primary means of communicating important information with our school families. We work hard to efficiently relay what you need to know, so please make it a priority to read through it. Previous editions can be found on the Parent Resources page of our website.
We have been advised that our handbook should have a more secure password and be updated annually. For the remainder of this school year, you will need to use the password "romans1017" to access the handbook through our website. We encourage you to look over the handbook again as we enter the second semester to make sure you are familiar with all of our policies and procedures. As always, let us know if you have any questions!
