Enabling parental Controls:

Article from PandaSecurity.com: How to enable Parental Controls on all your Devices

Parental controls are software or device-specific options that allow parents to monitor their child’s internet use. They prevent children from accessing inappropriate, unsuitable, or illegal content online. They can be implemented within your internet service provider, search engines, video streaming sites, chat software, cell phones, tablets, and more. Parental controls can practice the following prevention methods:

Control or block the video games your child can access
Filter web browsers and only show pre-approved websites
Prevent children from using certain services
Manage search engines to limit what a child can search online
Manage types of videos that are searchable

A Note from the Principal

Welcome October! It is the beginning of fall, Respect life month & the month of the Holy Rosary. Our Character Pillar of the month is RESPONSIBILITY. Please speak with your child this month about how s/he can show responsibility both at home and at school.

Student Council had our Jog-a-Thon kickoff this morning! We will be sending home flyers tomorrow with more information. You can get a head start by registering online at: www.getmovinfundhub.com School identifier: 5f737f1b92d78

We sent home a family income survey today. This document is very important in accessing funding for our school. It is one of the many things that factor into attracting donors and financial aid for our school. Please fill it out and bring it back tomorrow. If you receive financial aid from the school, at lease one of the answers on the back should be "yes."

I have recently found out that the website on the Safeguard the Children permission slip is incorrect. Here is the correct website: https://lacatholics.org/empowering-gods-children/
Apologies for any confusion.

There will be no school on Monday 10/11 due to a faculty professional development day.

THE DIGITAL PARENT
Tips and Tricks for Parenting in the 21st Century

RESPONSIBILITY:

Responsibility is the character trait or the month of October. Responsibility is essential for becoming a healthy, happy, and productive person, and it is the basis for a free and civil society where each person does what he or she is expected to do. This begins at home where children learn to take care of their belongings, clean up after themselves, do chores with a good attitude, finish their homework and resolve conflicts peacefully. Encourage your children to take responsibility in “little things” so they are ready for greater opportunities in the future!

Ideas to Do as a Family:

-Have your child share with you about times they are responsible. Emphasize that being responsible requires knowing what is expected and not making excuses.

-Share with your child about something you did that required responsibility. Explain how you are responsible.

-Schedule daily household chores that your child will be responsible for.

-“Catch” your child being responsible and offer your encouragement by verbally showing your appreciation.

-Watch a movie or TV program together and discuss how the characters are being responsible.

-Volunteer as a family to do a community service project together.

-Remember that the best teaching tool is to always model the behavior you want your child to learn.

Character Check:
Do your friends encourage you to be responsible?
In what ways do you feel you are responsible?
What are three ways you can be more responsible?

St. Francis of Assisi, pray for us. Read more below:

A Note from the Principal

Happy Monday, SJF Families!

I hope you all had a fantastic weekend.
There is no school today :) Please pray for our entire staff during our retreat today.

The new COVID protocols in LA have been released. The Department of Health has redefined "close contact" and who should be quarantined. Our school will still be considering grade-levels under quarantine if a student should test positive. HOWEVER, IF you choose to have your child tested weekly, and they continue to test negative, your child would not be required to quarantine. The test will be a cheek swab done on campus and is free of charge. If you are interested in signing your child up, please register HERE. Student testing is NOT mandatory. You only need to register once.

We'd like to wish Ms. Ventura, our TK aide, a VERY happy birthday (Thursday)! May God continue to bless her and her work here at our school and church.

Next Monday, October 4, is the feast of St. Frances de Assisi & the annual blessing of the animals. We will be sending home more information soon!

Due to a lack of interest, the Chess company will not be able to run their class on campus. We will try again in the Spring.

A Note from the Principal

Happy Monday, SJF Families!

I hope you all had a fantastic weekend.
The teachers and I have decided to stream our weekly masses from the classroom for a few weeks until cold and flu season calms down a bit. The teachers will be using this as a learning opportunity to teach more deeply about the parts of the mass and the proper church etiquette. We will still ask that all students continue to wear their mass attire every Friday.

This Friday, 9/24 is picture day. Please send your student in mass attire.

There will be NO SCHOOL on Monday 9/27 due to a faculty retreat.

We have been working with a COVID testing lab for our teachers and have decided to offer optional free COVID testing for our students. This is most important for our sports players, but it will be open to any family that would like their students tested weekly. The test will be a cheek swab done on campus every Monday (starting next Tuesday since we have no school on Monday) and is free of charge. If you are interested in signing your child up, please register HERE. Student testing is NOT mandatory.

Cheerleading:
Due to a lack of interest, we will NOT be having a cheerleading team this year.

Happy Monday, SJF Families!
We have had quite a week. Although the COVID cases in the different classes are not connected to each other, the faculty and I are still on high alert. We are asking all families to be safe on the weekends and to be sure NOT to send their children to school if they are feeling sick. We have also decided to require masks for all adults while on campus at all times (this includes outdoors during drop off and pickup). We realize that this is not mandated through the county, but feel that it is safest for our students. Thank you for your continued understanding and support!

Updated COVID Protocols

8/30/2021

COVID Protocols:
Thank you all for being respectful as you enter our campus by wearing your masks. This year has gotten off to a great start & I wanted to update you on our COVID Protocols. As always, our COVID compliance documents and plans can be found on the main page of our website at www.StJaneFrancesSchool.org

1. 100% healthy policy. PLEASE help us all out by only sending your students to school if they are 100% healthy. If they have a soar throat, a cough, or a fever PLEASE keep them home. The teachers will be very understanding and grateful.

2. Drop off Health Questions Before you bring your child to school, ask:
-Does my child have a fever of over 100.4?
-Does my child have shortness of breath?
-Does my child have a cough?
-Has my child been exposed to anyone with COVID in the last 14 days?
IF THE ANSWER TO ANY OF THESE IS YES, YOU MUST KEEP THEM HOME

3. COVID Screenings. All staff members who are not vaccinated will be required to take weekly COVID tests. These tests will be provided on campus and are available to all staff members.

4. Quarantine Protocol. Should a positive case of COVID be identified on campus, anyone who is unvaccinated and in close contact with that person will be asked to quarantine. Close contact is defined as "within 6 feet for 15 minutes or more during a 24 hour period." If your child is asked to quarantine, their teachers will make sure no learning is lost. They may return to campus within 7 days of exposure IF they have a negative test after the 5th day and have no symptoms. If they are not tested, they must stay home for 14 days. Vaccinated personnel and students do not need to quarantine unless they are showing symptoms. Siblings of exposed students do not need to quarantine unless their sibling tests positive.

If you have any questions about anything, please don't hesitate to give me a call.
Have a great rest of your week,
Mrs. Giron

A Note from the Principal

Good morning SJF Families! I am so proud of all of our teachers and students for successful first week of school.

As we begin September this week, we will begin Character development lessons. This month we will focus on the pillar of Respect. At the end of the month, the student(s) who exhibit this character trait the most will be awarded Student of the Month. Here is our parent letter for Respect.

Now that we are back into the routine, we are ready to sign up for some after school classes! Please see the flyers below for classes that might interest your child:
-Chess Wizards
-Soccer Club
-Armenian Language

Drop off & Pickup: Please be aware of your surroundings in the parking lot and on the street. If you need a quick drop off, you may pull to the front of the school and drop off right in front of the walk-through gate- PLEASE do not park in front of the school. If you would like to walk your child in, please park further down Hamlin St. or in the church parking lot.

Lunches: Please remember to pack your child's lunch daily. If you would prefer, you may order from Choicelunch.com. We do NOT allow daily drop offs of lunches or Postmates due to health & liability issues.

Reminder: School mass will start this Friday. Please come in mass attire. We will be offering a zoom option instead of physically attending mass if you are nervous about sending your child to church. Any student whose parents would prefer may stay with one of our staff members and watch the mass on zoom. If you are interested in this option, please contact your child's teacher before Friday.

Many Blessings!

THE DIGITAL PARENT
Tips and Tricks for Parenting in the 21st Century

RESOURCES:

Parents and caregivers should be on the lookout for signs of anxiety and depression in children. This can take different forms – being withdrawn, acting out, disobeying, being tearful. Please reach out if you need support:

Call the LA County Department of Mental Health (DMH) 24/7 Help Line at (800) 854-7771. The call is free AND confidential.
Call your pediatrician or healthcare provider if you are concerned about your child. If you don't have a health care provider, dial 2-1-1 and we'll connect you to one.

You can also visit DMH online at dmh.lacounty.gov/resources for resources related to back to-school and a number of other mental health topics.
