Monday Morning Memo

The Archdiocese of Washington did not use any of the allotted snow days this year, so the Secretary for Schools, Kelly Branaman, has authorized the last day of school to be moved up by one day. The last day of school will now be June 8th and will be a 12:30 dismissal with no aftercare.

Students in K through 8 will be taking their end of year standardized tests over the next two weeks. Please try to arrive on time with well-rested and well-fed students so they are set up to do their best on these assessments. If there is any way we can support, please let us know.
