Message from the Principal

UNIFORMS - PLEASE REVIEW

Students are doing well with following the dress code. Please remember that your child in Kindergarten through 8th grade must wear a St. Monica School Logo shirt or sweatshirt to Mass each week. CLICK HERE to order yours if you do not already have one.

Cargo pants and shorts are not permitted at St. Monica. If your child is wearing cargo pants or shorts they will need to change. Cargo pants and shorts have external pockets which are not approved.

CLICK HERE if you need more directions on our dress code.

SCHOOL MASS

We want and welcome you to attend Mass as a family. We are grateful for all who attend weekly and want to continue to support your faith journey. We have a new seating arrangement for families wanting to sit with their children at Mass that started last week. Thanks to everyone who followed those directions. Please know that if you arrive after Mass has started your child will need to remain with the class. You are welcome to sit with their class or in the other designated spaces.

No one should leave for any reason other than an emergency once the Gospel has begun. Thank you.
