SES WEEKLY UPDATE

Dear God,

As we light the second candle of Advent,
we thank You for the gift of peace.
Help us stay anchored in faith
when life feels busy or uncertain.

Guide us with Your gentle grace
so that our words and actions
bring calm and kindness to others.

May Your peace lift our hearts with hope,
and may Your love transform us
into peacemakers at school, at home,
and in our world.

Come, Lord Jesus,
fill us with Your peaceful light today and always.
Amen.

REMINDER - Transportation Informed Consent Forms DUE!

Parents - this is a friendly reminder that ALL students are required to have a “Transportation Informed Consent Form” filled out for the school year. (If you have already filled this form out for your child, please disregard this message).

This form will cover ALL bus travel for the year, including Mass and any other field trips within the city. The only time a separate consent form will be required is if the event has certain safety concerns (swimming, skiing) and/or is outside of the city limits.

Please note - failure to complete and submit these forms will result in your child NOT being able to participate in AND ride the bus to these events.

Please complete the online consent form by following these steps:

• Log in to your PowerSchool Parent Portal on a web browser - NOT the app - https://rdcrs.powerschool.com/public/home.html (If you do not remember your username or password, please contact the office).
• Scroll down and choose School Fees and Forms (second from the bottom, on the left)
• Select the student name from the top banner
• Select New Items, complete and submit the 2025/2026 In Town Transportation Consent Form
