​Dear St. Jane Frances de Chantal School Community, 

Welcome to the beginning of Trimester II and the start of Conferences week! In order to prepare for a great conference with your teacher, I have attached a handout that can be helpful. Together, with your teachers, we can all help your child do their very best.

Looking ahead, here is what is coming up:
· Conferences are this week and dismissal for Wednesday-Friday are 12:40 PM.

Dear St. Jane Frances de Chantal School Community, 

It was great praying with many of you at Family Mass today! 
Looking ahead, here is what is coming up/notes for you:
• Thank you to all of the parents that came to support Mrs. Boyd Day and volunteered for the Halloween Festival. Mrs. Boyd has been such an integral part for the past 26 years and it was fitting that there was such a great outpouring love and support for her. As for the Halloween Festival, it was amazing to see the hard work and dedication as each grade’s booths came together. Your commitment to the school made both of those days memorable. What a blessing to be in such a caring community!
• STAR Testing is this week. This helps the teachers support your child’s growth and learning. Please make sure that your child arrives to school on time and has already eaten a balanced breakfast.
