Parent Handbook 2020-21
Drop off and Pick Up Areas
Please observe the drop off and pick up areas. We ask that parents/guardians please stay off the blacktop areas to limit the number of people there. It is important that students use the crosswalk to cross the parking lot. Please model this for all the children by using it yourself.
Temporary Transition Work Pick Up
This Friday is our first Temporary Transition Work Pick up. There will be a table in the covered walk way from 9:30 am – 2:30 pm with work folders. You may come and pick up your child’s work folder. Please email the teacher if you have any questions. Any directions or instructions will be emailed to you before Sept 21, which will be their “first” day. Please share the videos below with your child so they can “meet” their teacher.
REMIND App

Message from Fundraising
The Fundraising team would like to welcome all the new and returning families to St. Patrick’s Elementary school. We are so happy to be back! As a team, we work hard to raise much needed funds for our beloved school while incorporating events that encourage community involvement and create lasting memories.
As we are all aware, Covid-19 makes this years annual events a little more challenging and as of right now we will be unable to host the much anticipated Trivia night and Paint Night this year. We are working hard on coming up with some creative and fun ways to continue to be financially supportive to our school while giving our school community a chance to stay involved. Please be patient with us as this year will be bring many changes and we are doing our best to navigate through this weird and unpredictable time.
Please make yourself familiar with the school websites fundraising section as all of our current and ongoing fundraisers will be available there. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to email me at [email protected].
Thank you for your patience and understanding and welcome to St. Pats!
