Dear Families, July 20, 2020
St. Catherine of Siena Catholic School’s plan for the 2020-2021 school year is to welcome all students back to our campus for classes. As we know, the plan may change as we follow the directives of the Diocese of Raleigh Catholic Schools Office, Bishop Zarama, as well as the recommendations set forth from the Department of Health and Human Services.
Our response and actions to bring students back safely include the guidelines detailed in Plan B that was sent out to you, these plans will be finalized and sent out.
As we know, the situation may change based upon future circumstances. Although we have not had many requests, we will offer an opportunity for remote learning for children whose parents prefer that option. The remote learning detailed plan will be sent out this coming week as the Task Team finalizes it. This flexibility for our families will allow us all to live out our Catholic Identity while embracing all our students, continuing to provide a rigorous, high-quality education.
As we await direction and guidance from the NCDHHS and our CSO, please know that what ever plan (A,B,C) is implemented we should continue to support one another, always remembering that we must trust in the Lord, knowing that He will lead us and protect us during all our tribulations.
Please pray for our Pastor, administration, staff, and all making decisions to keep our children and families healthy in mind, body, and spirit while continuing to provide them with a Catholic education! Please call or email with any questions, I will be happy to speak to you.
Sincerely in Christ,
Mrs. Catherine Schwarz
Interim Principal
St. Catherine of Siena Catholic School
