Dragon Dialogue on St M's Safety & Security Protocols and Initiatives
“Meet the needs of the child” is a guiding concept for our faculty and staff. A student has no greater need than to be safe and healthy. St. Michael's School Crisis and Safety Committee meets regularly to review protocols, best practices, and mitigation strategies, with robust measures and procedures in place.
Join us for a Dragon Dialogue on Safety and Security at St. Michael's.
- Date: WEDNESDAY, October 18, 8:20- 9:30 a.m.
- Location: The Perkinson Arts Center
- PLEASE RSVP and submit questions in advance! See you there!

Celebrate Readers with Birthday Books The Birthday Book program is a treasured St. Michael's K-8 tradition and a great opportunity to honor your child, support their love of reading, and help grow our St. Michael’s library collection. Here’s how it works:
- Select and purchase a book to donate to the St. Michael’s library collection.
- Order your child’s birthday book at least 3 weeks before their birthday, to allow enough time for delivery and preparation.
- You are welcome and encouraged to dedicate the book to your child, a family member, a teacher, or anyone you choose. Just fill out the text for your dedication in the 'notes' section on the bbgb order page, or email Mrs. Bryan-Diehl.
- Every birthday book will include a bookplate with your child’s name, birthday, and any included dedication on the inside front cover.
- Your child will be the very first person to check out their selected book! Participants will also be recognized during their library class and in a special Birthday Book display in the library.
We hope you will choose to participate in this time-honored and fun St. Michael’s tradition and help our wonderful library collection continue to grow!
