A big thank you to everyone who came to our Chamber Coffee on Wednesday morning. We had a wonderful turnout of community members. St. Malachy 8th and 1st grade students did an excellent job presenting their projects to the guests. Thank you Miss Dodge, Mrs. Clayton & Mrs. Clark for providing a lovely breakfast.

* ILLNESS
In the event a child becomes ill at school, he/she will be cared for to the best of our ability until the parent/guardian can be contacted. No child will be sent home alone when ill unless the parent is contacted and gives such approval.
Returning to school after an illness: The Center for Disease Control recommends that people with influenza – like illness remain at home until at least 24 hours after they are free of fever (100 F), diarrhea, vomiting, severe cough/cold, or signs of a fever without the use of fever-reducing medications (Tylenol, etc.)
The recruitment season is upon us! Do you know families who are interested in enrolling their child in kindergarten or preschool program at St. Malachy next year? Please let them know we have information nights coming up in February.
