A Note from the Principals

We are getting ready for a great school year and our classes are filling up fast. First grade is officially closed for enrollment and we have started a waitlist! Kinder, 2nd and 3rd grade are nearly full as well. If you know anyone interested in enrolling, tell them to call the office ASAP. Also, if you have not completed enrollment for next year, please do so or you may end up on a waiting list! 

Thank you for all of your support with our Popcornopolis sale! The popcorn that was not ordered online will be distributed next week. We will have one final fundraiser at the end of this month. Without having the carnival for the past two years, we have lost a significant source of income. Thank you for helping!

Yearbooks are available for pre-sale. If you use the link below, you'll be able to design up to 4 pages for free until March 15! Otherwise you can  order through the school office without personalization if you'd like. $20 for a softcover & $30 for a hardcover yearbook.

A survey of our middle school students indicated that on average, students in grades 5-8 are getting 3-6 hours of sleep a night! Their teachers and I BEG you to be sure your student is getting at least 8 hours of sleep per night. The American Academy of Sleep Medicine has recommended that children aged 6–12 years should regularly sleep 9–12 hours per 24 hours and teenagers aged 13–18 years should sleep 8–10 hours per 24 hours. This may require you to remove devices from their bedrooms and to leave them in common areas during the night. https://www.cdc.gov/healthyschools/features/students-sleep.htm#:~:text=The%20American%20Academy%20of%20Sleep,10%20hours%20per%2024%20hours.

As the weather warms up, please make sure your child brings a refillable water bottle to school everyday. We do NOT have water fountains for the students to drink from but we do have the bottle-filling stations available. 

We would like to wish Mr. Cuevas & Fr. Antonio a very happy birthday this Friday (5/7). May God continue to bless us with their presence and leadership! 

We would like to congratulate Ms. D, our secretary, for completing her BA in Liberal Studies! May God continue to guide her as she applies to graduate schools! 


Reminders:
We are excited to host summer camp this year! Please see the flyer below. If you are interested in camp please see Ms. D in the school office: office@stjanefrancesschool.org
 
Many Blessings!
Mrs. Giron & Mr. Ranney

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 (5/3)
Every Saint has a story & We know nothing of this man except his name, James, Son of Alphaeus, and, of course, the fact that Jesus chose him to be one of the 12 pillars of the New Israel, his Church. Read more below:
