Preschool Enrollment Opens on Monday, Feb. 1
As a current family, you get first priority as an “In-System family.” You will receive your invitation to enroll from Lori Phillips, Admission Director, on Monday, February 1 by 11 a.m.  

It is highly recommended that you complete your enrollment the day the window opens to ensure the best chances of getting your desired schedule for your child.  

Preschool Students New to Our School ``
Current GTACS parents can now enroll their “new-to-GTACS” student via their ParentsWeb account (parent portal). From the family tab, they will click on enroll/re-enroll and select “new student application.”  If you have a child at home or attending preschool elsewhere, please complete this step prior to February 1 so that you will automatically receive the enrollment invitation. Although this does not guarantee a spot, it does make sure that we know you intend to enroll your child. 

Our admissions office is already receiving many inquiries for preschool and anticipate that we will be at our capacity in some sections. If you have not completed your enrollment during the “in-system enrollment block February 1-12,” we cannot guarantee your child a spot in our preschool for the upcoming year.  Confirmation of your child's schedule will be sent on February 22.  

St. Elizabeth Ann Seton students competed in an international online STEM competition through the REC Foundation called "Thinking Outside the Box." The students were asked to compose a photo and write a paragraph that conveys the feeling that they experience when they are reminded of STEM robotics.

280 students applied from multiple countries.  Only 20 were selected as finalists including 4 from St. Elizabeth:

• Paige Schillinger  
• Brady Thelen 
• Eric Paulson 
• Aubrey Hendricks 

The top five winners will be announced February 5, 2021.

Additionally, this opportunity satisfied one of the requirements for a state grant that we received which will bring some new equipment into our STEM robotics classroom.
