COVID

We are continuing to monitor and reflect on allowed changes released by the Indiana Department of Health and the Marion County Health Department. Though many schools have moved to optional masking, we are maintaining our current protocols related to masking in order to allow opportunities for increased volunteerism and more frequent all school gatherings in the church. Our methodical and intentional actions will continue to provide our nurses and staff with useful information as we move forward.  To assist us in addressing this health risk, we ask that if your family has not yet been vaccinated please consider it: https://www.coronavirus.in.gov/vaccine/ .

Hearing and Vision Screening

The Marion County Health Department will be at St. Monica on March 10, 2022 to conduct vision screening for 1, 3, 5, and 8th grade, and hearing screening for 1, 4, and 7th grade. If you do not wish for your child to be evaluated or if you would like them evaluated and they are not scheduled, please let the nurses know nurse@smsindy.org

School Family Mass

Please plan to attend Mass on February 27th at 10AM, 12:30PM, or 6PM for our school family explanatory Mass. We want to fill the church to show our support for our faith.
