New Rotational Schedule for the 2019-20 School Year

With the input and approval of the faculty and staff, the Board of Directors, and Head-Elect Bob Gregg, we are excited to announce that St. Michael’s will adopt a new K-8 seven-day rotating schedule in the upcoming 2019-2020 school year.
St M families were sent this email on Friday with details. 
Families will have the opportunity to learn more about our transition to a seven-day schedule during informational Q&A meetings that will be announced in August. 
We are confident that this new schedule will enable St. Michael’s to maximize the learning opportunities for our students during the school day.

Thank You, Volunteers!

St. Michael's is a vibrant School because of strong volunteer support. Thank you to ALL of our volunteers for being so generous of your time, talents and treasure this school year!  We are truly grateful!
