Dear Parents,
“Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good…” Psalm 118
Anytime is a good time to give thanks to the Lord, and the start of a new school year is such a time. As the year begins, we welcome new staff and new families to our school and ask God’s blessing as we work together for the benefit of these children God has placed in our care.
We welcome to our staff Mrs. Audra Bates, who will be teaching English and Literature to our Jr. High Students. We also welcome Mrs. Zully Vock, who will be teaching Spanish to all grades, and Mrs. Angie Crowson, who will be teaching art to all grades. We are pleased to have all of these new staff members as well as our returning staff. We look forward to a great new year!
The year will begin on August 24th with dismissal at 11:00 A.M., with all students in uniform beginning on that first day of school. We are praying for a cool down in the weather department by then!
Our school day begins at 7:50 A.M. with the first bell. Students are expected to meet at the Pavilion and to walk into school to their classrooms. Prayer begins our day at 7:55 A.M. and ends our day at 3:00 P.M. An Aftercare Program is available and runs from 3:00 to 5:30 P.M. daily except on days when there is early dismissal or emergency dismissal. The fee for Aftercare is $6.00 per day per child and includes a snack and a drink as well as supervision by certified personnel. The Aftercare Program will begin on August 25tth, the first full day of school.
Here are some other important dates to assist you in preparing for this New Year:
August 10--Registration and Fee Payment--8: 00 A.M--12: 00 P.M., 1:00--6:00 P.M.
August 11--Registration and Fee Payment--8: 00 A.M.--12:30 P.M.
August 24--First Day of School--Dismissal at 11:00 A.M.

Registration for Preschool will take place on these same days.
If you are unable to come to register on the above days, please call the office @815-288-5619 to arrange for another time. Please do not come before August 10th, as forms will not be available.
When registering your children on August 10th and 11th, please be prepared to do the following:
1. Sign the Emergency Form
2. Sign the Textbook Loan and Asbestos Forms
3. Pay Book Fees and one month Tuition Fee
4. Purchase Assignment Tablets--Grades 2 through 8 @$4.50 each
5. Sign for various school volunteer events--library helpers, lunch helpers, room parents, etc.
6. Bring in the necessary physical forms required for your child—eye, dental, etc.
7. Bring in Baptismal and Birth Certificates if registering for the first time
There will be a Uniform Exchange this year. ONLY THE SCHOOL UNIFORMS WILL BE ACCEPTED FOR EXCHANGE. Please do not bring any other items of apparel. Clean uniforms may be dropped off at school anytime after Thursday, August 4th, with your name on an envelope attached to each item and a suggested price. If your clothing is sold, the money will be sent home to you in the first Brown Envelope. Clothing not sold will be returned to families. New uniforms must be purchased through Educational Outfitters at 16310 S. Lincoln Highway in Plainfield, or through their website, www.educationaloutfitters.com. The school code for St. Anne School is IL 0792. The phone number is 815-436-7777. Please do not use any other store, as they do not carry our required clothing.
This year, our school is having a PRACTICE CRISIS DRILL ON AUGUST 22ND WITH ALL STAFF AND TEACHERS. We ask that families do not come to school that day to make payments or to conduct any other business. Your cooperation is appreciated.
In giving thanks to the Lord, we also want to give thanks to our maintenance staff that worked so hard this summer to shine up our building. We are grateful to Mr. Kent, and to Todd Nelson and Alex Strum who assisted him this summer. The building looks great and will soon be ready to welcome your children.
Let us together continue to ask God’s blessing on this New Year as we work to educate our children in their Faith and in the many academic areas needed to live in our global society. May these August days continue to be full of good times for you and your family. See you soon!
Sincerely,
Sister Marcianne, S.S.N.D.
