Week of May 2, 2021

What an AMAZING WEEK!

We can't stop smiling.... our 2021 "Magic Dragon Day Re-Imagined" Spirit Week was filled with amazing Blue and White costumes, spirited field games and competition, sweet treats and chalk scavenger hunts, a boisterous all-school picnic complete with a parent cheerleading squad, and Maypole dances by BOTH kindergarten and first grade. Our hearts are full! 
Check out our Media Gallery for a glimpse into the week. Photos from the Maypole dances and the Friday picnic will be posted at the start of the week. 
Go Blue... Go White... Go DRAGONS!

Teachers' Appreciation Week: May 4-7

Teacher Appreciation Week is a favorite time of the year for our students and their families as they reach out to our beloved faculty and staff to show their appreciation with acts of kindness.  As you remember the many ways our teachers have cared for and nurtured your children throughout this pandemic year, consider sending notes of appreciation, perhaps flowers from your garden, or a small packaged sweet or savory treat this week.
On Wednesday, the SMPA hosts lunch for faculty and staff with boxed lunches from Christopher’s Runaway Gourmet.

We're Going Digital: Parent Portal for Back to School Forms: Due July 15 


For the upcoming school year, St. Michael's will be shifting all student medical information to a secure online database. There are many benefits to this change including less paperwork for parents to complete each year and having more accurate information that is accessible to parents and the appropriate employees at our school. The management system we have adopted is called Magnus Health SMR (Student Medical Record). As this is a web-based system, you will have continuous access to your child’s health record as well as the ability to make updates when needed. You will also have the option to access the account after your child graduates.  

On 5/1/21, you will have access to your Magnus Health SMR account through the Powerschool Parent Account that you have created.  Click here for a short video on how to access your Magnus Account through PowerSchool. We ask that you enter the health information required within your Magnus Health SMR account for each child attending St M no later than July 15.
There may be some additional forms due in late August.
Please contact Dave Grossman, Director of Technology with any questions. 

New Warm Weather Spiritwear

Happily, spring has sprung and warm weather is upon us. We have updated our Spiritwear Shop with new short-sleeved items, tie-dyed tees, wicking shirts, shorts, and even beach towels -- everything you need to show your Dragon pride!
