Please Check this Site on Friday Morning

As of 10:00pm tonight, Feb. 25, the The Dept. of Education is keeping the public schools open.
Please check back after 6:00am, when we will make a decision regarding the opening or closing of our school. Remember, your child's absence will be marked "excused absence", if your decision is to keep your son/daughter home due to the problems that this type of weather causes.
We know that some of the teachers who live at a distance will be unable to be present if the weather continues to make the roads impassable.

We have postponed the pizza sale. For students in grades 6-7-8, we expect that the dance will be held and tickets will be sold at the door.
Please check back tomorrow for updates on the status of school and the dance.Thank you for your patience. S. Theresa

SFA School Is Closed on Thursday, Feb. 11th

After careful thought, we will not open on Thursday, Feb. 11th. We regret the inconvenience this will be for many of you; however, with Father Juan's input, we believe there are many reasons to keep the children from traveling on Thursday.
