ST. MARK’S CATHOLIC SCHOOL

MARKSMEN MEMO

We have had a fabulous first week of school! Some rest and relaxation may be needed this weekend to prepare for our first FULL week of school. We are still on a heat schedule and we will dismiss at 1:30PM next week as well. 

All students need to bring a reusable water bottle to school with them daily! 

Drop off and Pick Up

Students can be dropped off anytime after 7:30 AM. Please do not leave your child standing outside if it is before 7:30AM, even if a staff member is present. If this occurs, they will be sent inside and charged for before care. 

Just a few quick reminders about drop off. 

  1. Please do NOT reverse in the drop off line. Wait for the car in front of you to move. 

  2. Parents should not exit their cars. 

  3. Students need to exit the vehicle on the passenger side ONLY. 

  4. If your child needs help, please park in the lot and walk them up. 

Please avoid driving NORTHBOUND (towards Bradley Ave) on Underhill at ALL times. Only go towards the alley. This will eliminate traffic flow and safety issues.

Aftercare 

We would like to welcome Angela Vargas to our staff at St. Mark! She will be helping us Monday-Friday during lunch and aftercare! We are still looking for additional help during lunch, recess, and aftercare. If you may know of someone interested, please send them our way!
