Vacation March 3, 10, 17, 24, 31 March – no days off April 7, 14 April – FF ends April 14th Attendance Policy The following information applies for all Faith Formation classes: 1. All students are expected to be in attendance for every class. 2. If your child will not be coming to Faith Formation, please call the Faith Formation (508885-3806 ext. 17) ASAP. If we do not hear from you before class time, we will attempt to call you to be sure that your child is safe. Please note: the phone system is old and the message on it cannot be changed. When the message begins, just press 17 to get to the Faith Formation extension in the hall. 3. All work missed by students when they are absent is expected to be made up, at home by that student with the help of the parents. If your child will need to miss several classes for any reason, you are expected to take their work home and complete the chapters there until they return to class. It is very difficult to make up classes for grades 6-8, which is why it is imperative for your child to make it to each class. 4. Late arrivals and early dismissals are handled by the principals. The principal will bring tardy children to class and retrieve children when leaving early. Parents should not go into the classrooms. Dismissal Policy 1. Sunday morning: All students whose classes are in the hall and rectory will be dismissed from the HALL after classes. Students in the Parish Office Center may be picked up outside that building as long as the parent meets them at the door (not waiting in the car). Otherwise the students will be brought to the hall to be dismissed with the other students. 2. Tuesday afternoon classes: ALL students will be dismissed from the hall, please come into the hall to pick up your child. 3. Students in evening classes will be dismissed and can be picked up in the parking lot. Extreme Caution should be used at all times in the parking lots. The smaller parking lot beside the church is a one way lot, enter from Prospect St., and exit by Church St. Cancellation Policy The following applies for all Faith Formation classes: Families should listen to the radio or TV stations for all cancellations: Cancellations will be on channels 4, 5, & 7 and WTAG, WSRS.
