Student Absences and Late Arrivals/Early Dismissals
For student late arrivals or early dismissals, please inform Mrs. Godwin (Middle School office) or Mrs. Bridgforth (Lower School office). Parents should park in a visitor's spot and then call the office so our staff can arrange for the student to head to class or to their car.
Also, if a student is going to be absent due to non-COVID related illness, a ski trip/sports/family travel, or for any other reason, parents MUST email Mrs. Godwin or Mrs. Bridgforth in the front offices.
Please note that virtual learning is ONLY provided for students with COVID-related issues.

Auction Items: Will You Help?
We are excited about St M's upcoming Auction, presented virtually on Friday, March 26, at 7 p.m.
Parent donations are critical to the success of the auction. Can we count on your help?
- Would you be willing to put together a themed basket? (Think kids cooking or art or outdoor fun or family games? And for the adults, baskets/coolers of adult beverages, or special items for the home, or personal care. Don't forget the pets!)
- Would you be willing to partner with another family to contribute an auction adventure? (Think tickets to an Escape Room, RVA TukTuk, a James River raft trip, a pool party, a game day BBQ, a golf outing or passes to Top Golf or Drive Shack, fishing or boat excursions.)
- Support our RVA Restaurants by donating gift cards to local favorites.
- Do you have a vacation home or own a timeshare? Trips are a HUGE hit!
