We would like to remind you of some of the protocols that have been put in place due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and how they affect your children as far as their lunches and beverages here in the school building are concerned.
Water fountains have signs over them as a reminder that they are not to be used. Please remember to supply your students with beverages to drink.
Lunch orders:
You must place lunch orders for students via the online portal before 9:00 p.m. the day before the lunch is needed. Since we often have changes in regard to students switching to remote learning due to exposure, please remember to make any adjustments on the lunch portal (i.e. remove your student's lunch order from the portal if they will not be in school so that you will not be charged). If you do not sign up and your child needs a hot lunch, you will receive a phone call asking you to bring in your student's lunch.
Lunches and snacks from home:
If you are providing snacks and lunch from home, please be sure you also provide utensils, napkins, and again, beverages.
Please feel free to contact our hot lunch program coordinator, Erin Carmody, directly via email should you have any other questions or concerns. Let's continue to be safe and healthy.
Parents of Remote Learners,
Please do not come to St. Rita to pick up your child's work before dismissal. Teachers often add books or other items to the pick-up boxes after dismissal, but before 3:00 p.m.
Pick-up times are from 3:00 to 5:00 p.m. on regular dismissal days, and from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. on early dismissal days.
Please do not park in the no parking zones on Edgemere Road and Dessa Drive. We need to be respectful of our neighbors and must leave space for any emergency vehicles that may need to get through. Thank you!
Yearbooks are available for purchase online only until January 31 for $25 and from February 1 through April 2 for $30. Don't miss out, and place your order online today!
