SKS faculty, teachers, and staff fought hard to bring students back into the classroom for the 2020-21 school year, despite the challenges, uncertainties, and risks that the novel coronavirus pandemic brought with it. While the fight is not over yet, we have been able to reach the 100 days of school milestone and can actually celebrate that almost all of them have been in person. SKS’s courageous approach to reopening school in face of COVID-19 and its healthy partnership with families has not gone unnoticed.
BLUE RIBBON FOR SKS On September 24th, 2020, St. Katharine of Siena School was honored as a National Blue Ribbon Exemplary High Performing School. The Blue Ribbon program, now in its 38th year, highlights the work of model school communities where students are supported, engaged, and challenged. The commendation will be an enduring visible symbol for the SKS community, with a National Blue Ribbon School flag and plaque gracing the entry, a reminder to all who enter that our school is a place of exemplary teaching and learning.
SKS TAKES A LEAP The SKS Board of Limited Jurisdiction entered the fundraising arena in a big way on February 29th at the Leap for SKS event, an evening to kick off the new SKS Annual Fund and to continue the fundraising efforts of the Logan Schweiter Scholarship Fund.
What do you do when you have an extra day in the New Year? You throw a party, of course!! The Take a Leap for SKS Party will be on Leap Day, February 29 at 7 p.m. in the Parish Center. This is going to be a huge party for anyone and everyone that has a love for our school. It’s for current SKS parents, past SKS parents, SKS alumni, SKS grandparents, and all SKS friends. I am encouraging you to save this date, and I really hope to see all of you at this event.
I hope those of you who were able to attend the Fall Social on Friday night has as much fun as I did. Thank you Noelle Hagan, Christina Fogli and Gina Genesio for all you did to make the event such a HUGE success. Through their efforts, and with the generosity of our wonderful families, we were able to raise over $35,000!! The Teacher Wish List is still open and will remain open until Thursday. Click here to browse some of the over 40 items that are still available. Reminder of [...]
