UPDATED! Open Faculty Positions - Lower campus Spanish teacher, Mrs. Sadie Presenti, will not be returning to the classroom this fall as she pursues new opportunities. We are happy that she will, however, remain an active parent volunteer! We thank Sadie for the many ways that she has been a valued part of the Saint Chris faculty and staff.
We have several staff positions open at this time. Please spread the word! We are currently in need of:
- 2nd Grade Teacher
- Part-time Spanish Teacher
- School Nurse
- Substitutes
More information about each position can be found HERE.
Updated Contact Information - Summer is a prime time for change of addresses and other contact information…and we want to keep you up-to-date on all communications from Saint Chris! If your address, email, or phone number will be different this fall, please contact Database Administrator Donna Beatrice at [email protected]. Thank you!
UPDATED! EFA Information - An email regarding tuition deadlines for EFA families was emailed to all parents on June 30. Please see the email HERE for more information.
In addition, parents who need to provide an invoice for EFA accounting are now able to produce their own through their Family Portal without the assistance of our Business Office. Please find instructions on completing this HERE.
Summer Office Hours - We’ll be here if you need us this summer! The school offices on both campuses will be open from 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM, Monday through Thursday! You can also call or email any of the school admin team on either campus and we’ll get back to you as promptly as possible!
NEW! After Care Rates - Extended Care (both Morning and Afternoon Care) will begin on the first full day of school on both campuses, August 27. Students are automatically registered for Extended Care…there is no additional registration needed! Due to rising program costs, After Care rates on both campuses will increase 50¢ per half hour this fall, making the rate $6 per half hour. The late fee remains $10 per 5 minutes after 6:00 PM. The Family Discount program (100% cost for the first child and 50% of all additional children on either campus) will remain. Parents will continue to be invoiced through their Family Portal on a monthly basis. Please note: All Extended Care balances are due when billed on a monthly basis. If a family is past due on Extended Care payments above $100, they will not be able to utilize the program until that balance is paid.
NEW! Lower Campus Forgotten Lunch - Lower campus “Forgotten Lunches” will continue to be available this fall once Hot Lunch begins, however the cost will be raised to $5.50 through Incidental Billing. Please note that these lunches are bagel and cream cheese only. Because Celebrations only provides enough lunches for those who order each day, students who need a “forgotten lunch” will not be served the daily lunch. Forgotten lunches are to be used on an emergency basis when students forget their lunch and parents are unable to bring one to school.
NEW! Used Uniform Closets - Have your kids outgrown their uniforms? Don’t forget that we have a used uniform closet at each campus! Donations of all outgrown uniform pieces are accepted and parents are also welcome to make an appointment to come in over the summer to look for uniform pieces to fit their growing children. Donations can be dropped off at the front desk at the lower campus or to Mrs. Coker at the upper campus any time during our summer hours. Please contact Mrs. Langenfeld at [email protected] for the lower campus or Mrs. Coker at [email protected] for the upper campus to arrange a time to come “shopping” in the closets!
NEW! Medications - Students who require prescription medication at school (including epi-pens) must provide an updated doctor’s order for the 2026-2027 school year. Please remember to check the expiration dates on those medications! Please bring documentation and medication to school on the first day of school.
7th Grade Vaccination Reminder - ALL students who are entering 7th grade MUST have a Tdap done and a physical/immunization record submitted to the upper campus school nurse, Laura Danielson, as soon as possible. The Tdap is specific to students of the 7th grade age. It is NOT the Dtap! If a student has a medical or religious exemption to vaccinations, please submit a copy of that paperwork to Mrs. Danielson before school starts in the fall. Thank you!
NEW! Yearbook Spring Supplement - Parents were emailed a link to the Yearbook Spring Supplement today! This supplement covers sports, activities, and events for the end of the school year. This includes graduation and convocation. You can view and print the supplement HERE.
NEW! Volunteering at Saint Chris - Are you planning on volunteering at Saint Chris this coming school year? If you have not yet completed the Safe Environment Training, get a jump on things by completing it over the summer! All volunteers are required to complete the training prior to ANY volunteer opportunities, including Hot Lunch, field trips, class projects and activities, etc. Training must be renewed every three years. To complete the training, please see the Diocesan information HERE. Questions about the process at the lower campus can be directed to Jackie Langenfeld at [email protected] and questions about the upper campus can be sent to Sue Coker at [email protected].
Summer Reading and Work - The lower campus back to school supply list as well as summer work assignments for both campuses are available in an article highlighted in the “News and Announcements” section of the school website HERE throughout the summer months. Please review all assignments with your child and be sure that all work is completed before the first day of school!
Lower Campus - The school supply list for the lower campus includes summer assignments for the lower campus students at the end of each grade’s supply list.
