Notes From the Office: January 9, 2024

January 9, 2024

St. John Families:

Please pay particular attention to the following information regarding the Inclement Weather Policy and Non-Traditional Instructional (NTI) Days:

St. John School will not always follow the decision of Scott County Public Schools with regard to the closing or delay of school due to hazardous weather conditions.  We also do not follow what the other Diocesan schools decide.  As soon as a decision is made, we will announce decisions on Lexington television stations/webpages and we send out an all school email.

Once the decision has been made and the school is open, we will not close early (except in rare occasions).  Your children are safe once they are here at school. However, if you feel threatened by the weather or road conditions and want to pick up your children early, you may do so by coming to the office and signing them out.  Please do not call the office to inform us you might come or that you are coming; simply head in to get them.  If you need another family to take home your child they must be on your pick-up list.  If they are not, you must call the office to give us permission to release your child. 

If the decision is made to close the After School program parents will be notified during the day that Afterschool will be closed.  Please make every effort to pick up your child from school at the dismissal time.

NTI Days are used when the physical school building is closed, but education will continue as a day of school from home.  In the past, homework packets were the standard.  The new Diocesan Policy requires a virtual educational component between students and teachers, specifically, where the goal is to encourage continued learning when a school needs to physically close due to weather, health, or safety reasons.  Your teachers will have detailed plans and instructions on how the school day will continue and it will include a virtual component (with the exception of Preschool).  While it is understood that exceptions will be necessary based on individual family situations, it is expected that students will log into their school accounts to interact with the teacher and receive educational instructions.  Handouts or other take-home packets may also be included to facilitate the experience.

Peace,

Mr. Mayer

Field Day Shirts

SIA is planning to purchase every student and teacher the below shirt for field day.  There will be one shirt for students in K-2 and another shirt for students in 3-8.  Student signatures will be on the back of the shirts therefore it is imperative that every student complete an order form.  The $20 price is for any additional shirt you may like to purchase.  Please contact Ashley Steagall at [email protected] with any questions.
