Middle School Writing Accolades

Congratulations to Middle School students Francesca Russell and Bacheler Burt for qualifying as finalists in the Richmond Area Reading Council's annual young writers contest!

Whether you call it the Summer Slide or the Brain Drain, students can lose ground in reading and math over the summer break.

To help our students practice what they learned this year and exercise their brains while they are away, HERE is the link to summer assignments by grade, as well as recommended reading lists. You can also find this information on our website under "Community/Summer-Back to School."

Once school is out, our team will be finalizing Back to School forms. Please check the website in mid-July for updates, forms and the 2016-2017 Academic Calendar.    

If you have a child in grades 3-8 who plans to participate in intramural or collegiate sports in the coming school year, an athletic participation physical examination form will be needed. Click here for the form.

Lastly, thank you for encouraging your child(ren) to read this summer! Be sure to check out our eBooks collection. Click here for info on how to access our digital library!

Summer Administrative Office Hours

St.Michael's will observe summer office hours starting the week of June 6.  Our Administrative Offices will consolidate at the Bon Air Lower School Campus and will be open Monday-Thursday, 9 a.m.- 2 p.m.

We will be closed on Fridays during the summer.  

St. Michael’s believes that important learning also happens outside the classroom with purposeful exposure to a broad variety of activities and experiences. That is why we offer inclusive co-curricular and sports opportunities for our students at both campuses.

For planning purposes, here is a full year list by season of the co-curricular and sports opportunities that will be offered in the coming School year. You may also access this information on our website site under  Community/Co-Curricular/Sports Info.

It's a Wrap!

This will be our final newsletter of this school year. We will resume again in mid-August. Of course, any pertinent information that needs to be shared with our families will be emailed this summer.

Thank you for a wonderful year!  - The Communications Office
