I am seeking more guidance from the diocese, as more information will be coming to school principals soon. May the Holy Spirit guide all of us, especially our leaders, and grant us wisdom and prudence as we make decisions about what is best for our kids.

Enrollment for the 2020-2021 school year will be Friday, July 31 from 8AM-3PM at the school. More info regarding procedures to be followed that day will be sent soon via email.
The first day of school is set for Thursday, August 13. The first two days- August 13 and August 14- will be half days.
We are currently waiting for finalization of the USD 234 calendar, as well as final guidance from KSDE and the Diocese of Wichita before we can begin communicating established plans for the 20-21 school year. What we can tell you right now is that our students WILL be in school all day, every day to begin the school year. God willing, that will hold fast for the entire year!
While we have been provided with a look at the rough draft of the diocese's guidance, the FINAL version will be delivered to principals on July 17. After that, substantial information will be delivered to parents via email no later than Monday, July 20.
Thank you so much for your patience. Pray, pray, pray for an end to this pestilence and a return to a healthy, normal routine for our children and our families. God Bless Us All!

Our teachers got together and provided all of the items that went into the “Movie Treat Sacks” that students earned through the Reading Challenge. Please join me in thanking them for their generosity. Our teachers are INCREDIBLE, both in terms of their pedagogical ability AND in their LOVE FOR OUR KIDS! Thank you St Mary’s teachers!! #TeacherAppreciationWeek
