Summer Office Hours
The Sister Annata Brockman School office will be closed from June 25 to August 23.
Our school office will re-open on Monday, August 24 to Thursday, August 27 from 7:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
Class Lists
Class lists will be posted the first day of school. You will receive a welcome letter from your child’s teacher the evening of September 1. Just a reminder that we will not be taking any requests for class placement. These lists have been made. Teachers spend a great deal of time creating these lists based upon a number of factors that have been carefully considered. Making even one exception creates a ripple effect that will necessitate starting over. We respect the decisions of our teachers and there will be no exceptions made. We appreciate your understanding in this regard.
Report Cards
Final report cards/summary reports for all grades will be available for viewing digital pdf on Wednesday, June 24 at 12:00 p.m. For all our new families, schools no longer print report cards for distribution at the end of the school year. Parents must access PowerSchool to view their child’s grades using their Power School login information received at the beginning of the year or using their child’s username and password.
