most of all Msgr. Michael Carruthers, Rector

Uniform
Reminder
Remember
to look your very best each and every day for school.
Students expected to be in complete uniform on a daily basis
according to school guidelines. Parents, please take a
moment
to inspect your child's uniform prior to bringing
them to school
in the morning. This will help them
start their day with the proper
mind set. It may help
if you have your child set out his/her uniform
the night
before, to avoid the rush in the morning. Thank you
for
your help in this matter.
Ten
Commandments of Good Manners
1.
Greet any adult, or fellow student, with "Good
Morning", "Hello", or "Welcome".
2.
Answer any adult with "Yes Ma'am" or
"Sir" or answer using the adult's name.
NEVER say "huh", "yeah", or
"what".
3.
When called from a distance, go TO the person calling
you. Do not answer while walking away or yell from
another room.
4.
STAND UP: When any adult enters the room or classroom,
when answering a question for a priest, teacher, or staff
member, unless the adult tells you it is a drill or
another exercise. This is for the benefit of the whole
class, not just for the adult.
5.
Use "pardon me" or "excuse me" when you
have not heard something. Use this also when stepping
in front of anyone, whether adult or your own peers.
6.
Step back from the door to allow an adult to enter
first. Hold the door open, and let ladies
enter first.
7.
Offer to help carry books, packages, etc. for your teachers,
staff members, etc. unless you
are managing your own heavy
objects. Do the same at home for parents or other
adults.
8.
NEVER read items on teacher's desk. Never open
envelopes addressed to someone else, especially your parents
or teachers. This is illegal as well as showing a
great lack of respect.
9.
When eating: take small bites and chew with mouth
closed, swallow before speaking, don't
play with food, keep
place neat, remove trash, food leftovers, and place them in
the trash.
10.
Always say please and thank you!
