Sports ministry covid update
Dear Families,
As Covid-19 cases are back on the rise, we are experiencing more quarantines. If your child is quarantined, they cannot participate in sports as soon as you are advised of the quarantine, even if they are in the “test to stay program.”
If your child is quarantined, please contact Sports Ministry regarding the date your child can return to sports. Please provide this notice to your coaches so that they can ensure enough players for games and practice.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact April Wimberg (aprilwimberg@gmail.com) or Matt Simon (msimon3232@gmail.com)
GO VIKINGS!
covid protocol:
Parents of a vaccinated student may send a copy of their child's vaccination card to tpark@stalbert.org or to the school office to the attention of Tatum Park. If your vaccinated child is exposed to a positive case, you will still be contacted if they are within the 3-foot radius of the positive case. Vaccinated students do not need to quarantine. This is optional but would greatly help us in speeding up the process dealing with exposures and quarantining. Thank you!

2022-2023 SY: Important Enrollment & Financial Aid Information
It’s hard to believe it’s already time to begin planning for the following school year. Please take some time to carefully review the attached information, as it affects every family here.
It is also critical that we know as far in advance as possible how many new siblings will be added and how many current students are not returning for the 2022/2023 school year. This helps us identify the number of spots that are available for prospective students next year. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
