SES WEEKLY UPDATE

We are excited to share that Mr. Kelly will be returning to work half time beginning March 2. Mrs. McQuay will continue in her role for the remaining portion of the time as he gradually transitions back to full time.

Please join us in welcoming Mr. Kelly back!

A heartfelt thank you to our Parent Council for their generous support of the Grade 4 classes during their afternoon of curling at the Pidherney Center. The students had an incredible time, learned the basics of a new sport, and created some great memories together.

We truly appreciate your continued support of our students and school community — thank you so much!

Grade 4 and 5 Students will be patrolling the crosswalks to the West of the school and to the North of the school. Please obey school zone speeds and crosswalk safety as our kids work to keep everyone safe. If your child is a Grade 4 or 5 patroller, please click here for their schedule that will go until the end of June.

SES is welcoming Linda Alberg and her Companion Dog Daisy to our Seton community every Monday morning 9:00 - 10:30. Daisy is a Cockapoo Poodle cross who loves spending time with children. She is a calm and loving dog, and we are thrilled to have her join our Seton Family. Daisy will join us in the library to help provide affection, comfort and support to our students, while also developing skills in self-regulation, decreasing stress and anxiety, increasing communication skills and promoting positive interactions.

While our school buses are almost always on time, the winter months and snowy road conditions can lead to delays for your child’s school bus. To stay notified of your child’s bus status, please see the following links for ways to check on bus times. The App has been refreshed and is now called Bus Status 4. Please reinstall the app if you still have the older version.

St. Elizabeth Seton School Website

Bus status can be found on the main page of our website. It will display if a bus is on-time, delayed, or cancelled. There will often be a comment next to the delayed buses indicating how long the bus delay is. Click the title above to link to our website.
