A Note from the Principals

Good afternoon SJF Families! 

Every year at this time our teachers review a child abuse prevention program with our students. This program is called "Empowering God's Children" and is intended to equip our students with the tools they need to remove themselves from any uncomfortable situation from bullying to abuse. Please see our communication below for additional information. ADDITIONALLY, the principals in the Archdiocese were sent a letter from the  downtown office regarding a previously employed music teacher here at SJF for a couple months during the 2017-18 school year so I wanted to pass it on. target="_blank">HERE to view the letter.

We are gearing up to bring 6th grade and some 7th & 8th graders back on campus next week! Join us for a Middle-school back-to campus meeting on Thursday @ 6pm. bit.ly/SJFZoom (meeting ID: 583 215 195) Password: SJF
Grades 1-5, please be on  the lookout for an email from your teachers this week about updates to next week's schedule.

Photo Make-up day is THURSDAY 3/4 from 9am-11am. If your child is on campus, please let your teacher know they need to do a make-up photo. If you are off-campus, please come by anytime between 9am-11am. Please wear mass attire. There will NOT be another photo day this year. 

Stations of the Cross: Classes will begin presenting Stations of the Cross Weekly on our all-school zoom every Thursday at 9am in Lent. This week will be sponsored by t6th & 7th grade. Please join us!

2021-2022 School Year: Financial Aid forms are now available for the new school year. If you will need ANY AMOUNT of discounted tuition, you must fill out the financial aid form from CEF by March 31, 2021. The form is available HERE: bit.ly/CEF2021
Re-Registration for the 2021-22 school year: I will send the instructions on how to re-enroll in an email tomorrow!

Pan de Vida Cereal Drive is still occurring until Easter break. Please donate to those less-fortunate by bringing in a box or two of cereal to your teacher. 


PRAYER REQUESTS:
Please pray for Mrs. Yadon (Mother of Kiley, Class of 2020) who is in the ICU due to COVID. 
 
Many Blessings!
Mrs. Giron & Mr. Ranney
We are committed to your child’s safety and well-being.  Almost daily, we hear of incidents of child sexual abuse happening. That is why learning how to prevent it is important. We, as adults, must learn how to keep our children and young people safe, but that we also teach them to keep themselves safe.
 
St. Jane Frances School will present a child sexual abuse prevention program, called VIRTUS® Empowering God's Children, to our students this month. The creators of the Empowering God's Children™ program developed the Touching Safety program which consists of “Five Safety Rules” children need to learn to help keep themselves safe.  They will also learn about internet and technology safety, setting boundaries, bullying and related topics.
 
This program is provided by the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, and is a part of our ongoing effort to help create and maintain a safe environment for children and youth to protect all children from sexual abuse. For more information on the Empowering God's Children program, you may visit the VIRTUS Online™ website at www.virtus.org.
 
If you want to teach this program to your child yourself, an Opt-Out form is available upon request in the school office.

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:

  1. Call the LA County Department of Mental Health (DMH) 24/7 Help Line at (800) 854-7771. The call is free AND confidential.

  2. 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.

 

Thank you for continuing to pay your tuition on time & allowing us to keep everyone on staff so far!
If you have any questions or would like to pay your tuition via a credit or debit card please call (612) 548-3320 or click the link below:

Saint of the Day (3/1)
Every Saint has a story & Saint David of Wales is the patron saint of Wales and perhaps the most famous of British saints. Ironically, we have little reliable information about him. Read more below:
