A Message from the Principal:

Registration - 2010-2011 Serra Catholic School Budget Presentations

We are looking forward to our families returning for the 2010-2011 school year. We are very excited to share with you the goals for the upcoming year, the implementation of our new Strategic Plan, and in an effort to be truly transparent, a full budget presentation, including 2010-2011 Tuition and Fees. We have scheduled two parent meeting nights for these presentations. Please plan to attend on ONE of these evenings:

Monday, March 22nd at 7:00 p.m.
Wednesday, March 24th at 7:00 p.m.

Registration packets will be available at these meetings. We hope that at least one parent from each family will attend one of these important meetings as our goal is to keep you informed and to help you to be an active part of our school.

Serving Christ's Children,

Angeline Trudell
Principal
