Greetings from Mrs. Musick

Dear St. Elizabeth Families,

As we come to the close of another wonderful school year, I want to take a moment to thank you for your partnership, support, and trust throughout the year.

This year was filled with many accomplishments, celebrations, and memorable moments. Our students make us proud every day. None of this would be possible without the dedication of our teachers, staff, families, and students working together.

Thank you for supporting your children, encouraging their learning, and partnering with us to make St. Elizabeth such a special place.

As summer begins, I encourage everyone to take time to rest, recharge, and enjoy time with family and friends. I also encourage students to continue reading, exploring, and learning throughout the summer months.

Thank you again for a fantastic school year. I hope you all have a safe, relaxing, and joyful summer. We look forward to welcoming everyone back in the fall for another great year at St. Elizabeth! If you are attending summer school, we will see you soon and can't wait to continue learning with you!

To all of our families with seniors--hugs! We have enjoyed them here and will continue cheering for them along the way. If that was your final Hornet, we appreciate all the memories. Be sure to still stop by and see us! We'd love to see you around!

It's a great day to be a Hornet!

It will be at the Eugene Track.

Reminders for the School Year

Drop off times: Students can't be dropped off before 7:45, unless participating in the Before Care program or an appointment with a teacher. This is to ensure that they are being looked after by staff. Drop off times should be between 7:45 and 8:00 and students will come to the gym during those times instead of main entrance.

Before/After Care for K-5th Grade: Friendly reminder that the end time for After Care for K-5 is 5:00. Please make sure that if your child is here before 7:45, that they are attending Before Care.

Changes to routine: Please make sure to call the office before 2:00 or send a note in if there are changes to your child's routine for dismissal.

Pre-Arranged Absences: Please be sure to let Mrs. Musick and child's teacher(s) know. All work should be gathered before and is due upon return.
