SAFETY FIRST!

We are happy to inform you of two important pieces of information that deal directly with student safety:

  • Mr. Ron Farringer has completed extensive training per Diocesan and state guidelines to serve as inspector of our building for any signs of asbestos concerns.  After a small area of flooring tile was removed in a closet (not in an area of student use) this summer by an asbestos removal company, our school has been given a clean report.  At this time, we have no concerns regarding asbestos in the building. We continue to hold a thorough inspection every six months and report our status  to the state and Diocese.   Reports are on file in our offices for review at any time. 
  •  Because we feel that accident coverage of  your children is very important, we have secured a special School Time Accident Policy for all students attending our school and any school sponsored and supervised aftercare program.  The cost of the insurance is paid by the school and is an expectation of the Diocese to protect our students.  The coverage is offered by Bollinger, Inc. and the insurance carrier is Monumental Life Insurance Company.  The school time policy is excess coverage.  This means that benefits will be paid that are not payable by any other insurance policy or group service contract.  The insurance applies only if the following conditions are met:

o   The accident results from a school sponsored and supervised activity

o   Initial treatment is rendered within 90 days from the date of the accident, and

o   A completed claim form is mailed to Bollinger, Inc and postmarked within 90 days after the date of the accident. 

The claim form is available at the school. 

STUDENT SAFETY IS ALWAYS A PRIORITY.

Congratulations to Holy Cross 5th Grader Ivy Schumacher, who is the winner of the cover contest for Sara Ernst's Photography "Fall Getaway" shoot.  See Sara's comments below.   

 


I recently held a Cover Contest for any and all red-headed kids across the area as a nod to my favorite season, fall! So many entries and faces later, there was one that was simply oozing with life and spirit (even in the entry photo)...Ivy Schumacher! I just kept going back to that face and finally, couldn't pass it up! The first meeting with Ivy made it crystal clear that I had made the right choice! So bubbly, bright, and of course, beautiful! There were actually two parts to this shoot. There was the "Fall Getaway" with her dog, Penny, and an awesome '67 Beetle that I borrowed for this specific shoot. Also, a "Woodland Wonder" part with wreaths, wood stacks, and candle lit  mason jars. Ivy exceeded my expectations in every possible way. Even though I created and styled the shoot, she made it her own with all of her adorable expressions and poses and that infectious personality! I loved every minute I shot with Ivy...beautiful inside and out!!  Please visit me on Facebook or you can go to my website for more sample images (www.saraernst.com).
