Meet-and-Greet:
Our back-to-school meet-and-greet is Monday, August 24, 2026, from 3:30-6 p.m. There is much to do to get ready for the school year.
- Meet your teachers and pack your desks/lockers with all of your school supplies for the year.
- Meet some of your classmates, old and new.
- Step into the gym while you are here to get your school picture taken.

Please use this PrePay picture link to order your picture packages. Yearbooks will be sold at a later date. They are not included in the packages.

Visit our Uniform Swap tables that will be set up in the Parish Hall. If you have uniform items that your child has outgrown (St. Gabriel branded tops and/or dress code compliant bottoms only), bring them along and swap them for a bigger size, or just pick up a few gently used items that your child could use during the upcoming school year.
We look forward to seeing everyone again!!!

School Communication System:
St. Gabriel Parish School has a communication system connected to our database that allows us to text, email, and/or call families efficiently, called BrightArrow. We will be using this system when we need to send out messages to all families, certain grade-level families, teachers/staff, etc. This system is particularly helpful in emergencies and when school is canceled due to weather conditions or other unforeseen circumstances.
If you are new to the school, you will need to opt in to this program once you receive the first message. After that, you will receive all texts, emails, and phone calls without needing to opt in. The system is set to use the contact information in our system, which is the information from your registration form. If you would like to add or change contact information in our messaging system, please contact the school office and let Linda know.
Bussing:
If your family is within our bus service area and would like to receive bus service this school year, please contact Riteway Bus Company (germantowncharters@goriteway.com.) if you have not already done so.
Riteway is in the process of creating bus routes and would like to complete the routes as soon as possible. If you do not notify them of your wishes, your family will not be added to the bus routes. Please share your child(ren)'s name and whether they will be riding AM, PM, or both. You can reach Riteway directly at (262) 677-8739.
