Reminders of a few of the rules regarding review days and finals:
This is a reminder that parents must sign a new Early Dismissal pass for the Spring of 2024. This allows your daughter to leave campus when she has a free block at the end of the day. This applies to all students (even if they currently have a pass). The fall passes are void after 12/21/23. They will receive an updated sticker when they return in January. Thank you!
Our students all love social media and can’t wait to use their phones to connect to each other and the world at large. However, all that continual connection does not give them the opportunity to rest, relax and just be.
This is a reminder that non-SFHS jackets can not be worn on campus. Red SFHS uniform jackets can be worn on campus and they can be purchased in the Troubie Store, open on Tuesdays from 10:00am to 1:00pm. Jacket prices are $50-$60 plus tax.
With the weather starting to change, remember only “docker style” pants and SFHS jackets may be worn on campus. Please purchase these and SF jackets now, before the cold really kicks in. The Uniform Standard Guide and page 64 of the Student-Parent Handbook list the specific rules and requirements.
Students are not allowed to wear:
Since the start of school the past few weeks, we have had and will continue to have waves of illness; COVID, strep, flu etc. Please talk to your daughters about keeping herself and others safe. In short, keep up the practices that have helped keep our community as safe as possible over the past year:
Due to health and safety concerns, and to avoid any disruption to school activities, all animals are prohibited from school property, school facilities, school transportation, and school functions except for registered service animals. The service animal must be a dog or, in limited specific circumstances, a miniature horse. No other species of animal will be permitted as a “service animal.”
The start of a new school year means a review of policies and procedures as well as the acknowledgment or completion of important forms. Please review the following from the Dean’s Office:
Students are eligible for an Early Dismissal Pass (EDP) for free block(s) that fall at the END of the day only. Students who have the last block(s) of the day free may leave during the lunch block with an EDP.
All students parking on campus must have a parking permit pass. Seniors may continue to purchase and paint a reserved parking space for $300 or they may purchase a non-painted/non-reserved space for $150. Sophomores and Juniors can purchase a non-painted/non-reserved space for $150. Permit passes will be issued to students during the first week of school.
One of our favorite traditions is Seniors Painted parking spaces to benefit our scholarship programs. Students may personalize their parking spot by creating a design that reflects their interests and/or shows school spirit. Designs must be pre-approved by the Administration prior to painting and cannot violate the tenants of the St. Francis Catholic High School. All template designs must be turned in no later than July 13th (absolutely no late templates will be accepted).
How to sign up:
No matter how old they are, or how mature you believe your daughter to be, many platforms can be inherently dangerous with contacts not known to your daughter. Here are two examples that are popular with students that may have risk potential for your daughter OMEGLE and TWITCH:
Please review the routes that will be open for dance drop off and pick up this Saturday night, 10/01/22 and share with your guests if they are driving.
