STAFF > LETTERS FROM THE PRINCIPAL
Principal Letter
Dear Parents and Guardians,
We did it! It has been a second amazing year at All Saints Academy! As this is our last time to communicate via the ASA Today Newsletter, we would like to say a special thank you to our secretaries Tammy Aman and Jo McGavin. Fridays can be very hectic with all that is going on, and these two ladies have handled crazy days with much grace and poise.
Also, we would like to thank Judy Hardy and Jeanne Pitsch, our receptionists extraordinaire. At times their job is more like a concierge, nurse, counselor, mom……and they wear all of these hats with patience and kindness. They also help our staff in ways too numerous to count……kudos for a job well done.
Our custodial staff at both buildings also deserve a special thanks for their hard work and willingness to do whatever it takes (and some times it does take a lot) to keep our buildings safe and clean.
Last week we thanked our volunteers, and in early May we celebrated staff appreciation week. This past week we have tried to honor our 4th and 8th graders as they take another leap forward. To our parents who have entrusted us with your cherished children, we say thank you and hope we have lived up to your expectations. And to the kids themselves, we want to say thanks for the joy and simple honesty you share with us each day.
We will post supply lists, the school calendar, start of fall sports practice and other information about ASA on our website over the summer. Our elementary school office will remain open throughout the summer as will our summer child care programs. The Office will be open from 9:00am —3:00pm Monday through Thursday and will close at Noon on Fridays. Summer school will be in session from June 28-July 30 with July 5th off for the holiday. This will take place at the Elementary building only.
The MS office will close for the summer at noon on Monday, June 7; however phone calls will automatically be transferred to our elementary office. We will try to return phone calls and email messages within 48 hours over the summer months.
The Middle School office will re-open on August 16. The back to school mailing will be mailed out Aug. 13. Our Back to School Ice Cream Social will be held at both buildings on Tuesday, August 24 from 6-8 PM. More info will be included in the back to school mailing.
Please remember to have your children stay sharp with their reading and math skills over the summer! Lots of learning happens throughout the summer that is different than ‘book learning”.
Continue to celebrate FAITH, LEARNING, LOVING and SERVING all summer long! Good Luck to our graduates in their new endeavors and we look forward to seeing everyone else back at ASA in the fall!
Peace,
Chris Burns. Principal
Anne Harpold, Asst. Principal
