Open Classrooms Day is scheduled for Monday, August 10. We will be following the drop off/pick up process and requiring masks to be worn while traveling inside the school. Sanitizing stations will be placed throughout the building. This is an opportunity for students to find their homeroom, meet their teacher, and drop off school supplies.

• A - E 4:00 - 5:00 pm
• F - J 5:00 - 6:00 pm
• K - O 6:00 - 7:00 pm
• P - T 7:00 - 8:00 pm
• U - Z 8:00 - 9:00 pm

Due to COVID-19 regulations with social distancing and the safety of our families, we will not be hosting our usual School Expo in the gym or the Used Uniform Sale in the Cafeteria during Open Classrooms.

If you need to turn in checks for the cafeteria, they can be mailed or dropped off in the school office M-F, 9:00AM-Noon.

*Please make sure you mark the checks CAFETERIA*

If you have questions about buses/Miller Transportation, please contact Larry Brunner at lbrunner@stalbert.org.

We will be adding school organization information and contact information to the Monday Memo, as needed, in lieu of booths being set up in the gym during Open Classrooms.

As always, if you have any questions about anything, please contact the school office at 425-1804 or Parish office at 425-3940.

If your contact information (home address, email, phone number, etc.) has changed recently or will be changing during the summer, please notify the school office by emailing Becky Fry (bfry@stalbert.org) and copying Bill Henderson (bhenderson@stalbert.org) with your new information.

All 1st-8th grade families NEW to St. Albert AND ALL incoming Preschool, JK, and Kindergarten families will have Parent Orientation on either August 4th or August 5th (see below for your specific session date/time). We will give you the 411 on everything you need to know before school starts. You will hear from our Administrators, various school staff including our Preschool, JK, and Kindergarten teachers, representatives from our different school organizations, learn more about new school procedures, lunch information, uniforms/spirit wear days, new carpool routes, how to get involved, and MUCH MUCH MORE! We will wrap up the session with Q & A. For the safety of our families and speakers, we ask that masks be worn, only one parent attends and children remain at home. Orientation will take place in the Parish Life Center.
