School Info & Policies

Due to an increasing number of allergies, we are a "NUT FREE" school. Children with these allergies can have severe reactions to nuts. Please do not send peanut butter sandwiches, any nut products or products made in a factory that processes nuts to school with your child. Soy butter is okay. Thank you for your kind consideration.

Each Tuesday, families recieve the school newsletter electroncially. This enables us to communicate with you easily on a weekly basis. For you convenience, we have added a Volunteer submission page on our website, for families to submit hours electronically. When volunteering, it will be an easier way to submit hours. Thank you for all of the volunteer hours you give to the school!

If your child is going to be absent from school, please phone the school office between 7:00-8:00 AM. Please remember your child must be fever free for at least 24 hours before sending them back to school. Upon returning to school, please send a note with your child indicating the nature of the absence.

Extended Student Services (ESS) is available for all of our students through the Finalsite (SchoolAdmin) portal.  ESS is offered before and after school under the direction of Mrs. Raney. There needs to be an Emergency Card on file in the school office before your child is able to use this service. ESS is available before school from 7:00-8:30 AM and 3:20-5:30 PM.

St. Pius X Extended School Services (ESS) is an extension of the school day. ESS provides a place for children to complete homework and have free time after school in a supervised, safe environment.

Hours of Operation

ESS operates on regularly scheduled school days only. Hours of operation are:

• Before School: 7:00 AM - 8:30 AM
• After School: 3:20 PM - 5:30 PM (or 2 PM to 5:30 PM on Mondays)

Registration

Everyone in the school is registered in the program, provided a current emergency information card is on file in the school office. The cost is $6.00 per hour for each child. It can be divided into 15-minute periods for $1.50. Families picking up their children after 5:30 PM will be charged an additional $1.00 fee for every minute they are late.
