Drop-off and Pickup Safety

       The church parking area is a big safety concern.  With more people attending 8:00 a.m. Mass during Lent, there are fewer parking spaces.  Also, parents are parking in the handicapped spaces as they walk their children in to school.

       There is absolutely no dropping off or picking up of students in the front of church east of the cones and no parking in the handicapped spaces.  You must use our drop-off procedure line for arrival and dismissal, even if students are attending 8:00 a.m. Mass.  This system has worked well for many years and is a safe alternative to parking.  We have plenty of help outside to guide the children from the cars to the school building.  If you absolutely must park, please escort your children out of the car and hold their hands in the parking lot.  Use extreme caution pulling in and out of the parking lot and walking through the parking lot.

       When using the drop off line in the front and on 54th Street, please pull all the way up before allowing your children to enter/exit the car.  Please be mindful of cars in front of you and behind you.  Never pull around a car.  Kindly wait, and move forward as the line moves. 

       Arrival and dismissal lasts 10 minutes or less.  Please allow enough time in your schedule at the beginning and end of the day for a safe arrival and dismissal, and watch your speed. This is a school zone! 

       Thank you in advance for your cooperation in this matter. 

2015-16 Re-Enrollment (Current Families)

       School families received an e-mail/letter from Mrs. Hillgoth and Ms. Hayes with instructions for on-line re-enrollment and a link to the FACTS Management site for your $50.00 deposit.

       Please Note: to prevent late fees, we scheduled the re-enrollment deposit due date for May 2015.  Auto Pay families' accounts are scheduled to withdraw this payment in May, unless you schedule it sooner. So, we are asking all families, including those using Auto Pay, to schedule your deposit now.  Please visit your FACTS Incidental Expenses account and open the 2015-16 school year to make your payment. 

       St. Cletus School enrollment is now open to the general public, and class openings are available to all on a first-come, first-served basis.  If you haven't re-enrolled, please do so now.  Thank you.
