Message from the Principal

Dear St. Michael-St. Gabriel Families and Friends, 


We want to thank our cafeteria staff and our parent volunteers who made this morning’s Christmas feast a huge success. We are so blessed that we are able to come together as a whole community this time of year. It’s always such a delight to see the smiles on our students’ faces as they celebrate this Christmas season together.


As we look ahead to next semester, please know that we will distribute our registration packets for the 2025-2026 school year when we return. Those forms will be due by the end of January, as we will open up enrollment to new families in February. Please note that we do not hold spaces for currently enrolled students, so if you wish your child to return next year, please have those forms completed by the end of January. The last two years we have had families miss out on enrolling with us because they waited until the spring, and classes had already filled up. 


Please also mark your calendars for our Parent-Teacher Conferences which will be held on January 15th and 16th from 3:00-7:00 p.m. (PreK hours will be from 2:00-5:00 p.m.) This also means that aftercare will not be offered either day, as we want students to attend the conferences with their parents, so please plan accordingly. 


Remember that classes resume on Monday, January 6th, but until then, I wish all of you a very safe, relaxing, and blessed Christmas break!  



God Bless,

Mrs. Ramos

Queridos Padres y Amigos de San Miguel-San Gabriel, 


Queremos agradecer al personal de la cafetería y a los padres voluntarios que hicieron que la comida de Navidad de esta mañana fuera un gran éxito. Somos muy afortunados de poder reunirnos como comunidad en esta época del año. Siempre es un placer ver las sonrisas en los rostros de nuestros estudiantes mientras celebran juntos esta temporada navideña. 


Viendo que el próximo semestre se aproxima, les recordamos que distribuiremos los paquetes de inscripción para el año escolar 2025-2026 cuando regresemos de vacaciones. Esos formularios deberán entregarse a fines de enero, ya que abriremos la inscripción a nuevas familias en febrero. Tenga en cuenta que no tenemos espacios para los estudiantes actualmente inscritos, por lo que si desea que su hijo regrese el próximo año, debe completar los formularios antes de finales de enero. Los últimos dos años, hubo familias que no pudieron inscribirse con nosotros porque esperaron hasta la primavera y las clases ya estaban llenas. 


Por favor, marquen también en sus calendarios nuestras Conferencias de Padres y Maestros que se llevarán a cabo el 15 y 16 de enero de 3:00 a 7:00 p.m. (el horario de PreK será de 2:00 a 5:00 p.m.). Esto también significa que no se ofrecerá cuidado después de clases ninguno de estos días, ya que queremos que los estudiantes asistan a las conferencias con sus padres, así que por favor planeen asistir con sus hijos. 


Recuerden que las clases se reanudan el lunes 6 de enero, por lo que, les deseo a todos unas vacaciones de Navidad muy seguras, relajantes y bendecidas. 


Dios los bendiga,

La Sra. Ramos

Prayer for Students

Lord our God,
in your wisdom and love
you surround us with the mysteries of the universe.
Send your Spirit upon these students
and fill them with your wisdom and blessings.
Grant that they may
devote themselves to their studies
and draw ever closer to you,
the source of all knowledge. We ask this through Christ our Lord.

R/. Amen.

8th Grade Trash Bag Sales

It’s that time of year when we know many of you are beginning to bag up your leaves and clean out your gardens. If you are interested in purchasing trash bags from the school office, we are selling rolls for $11 a piece. All proceeds go to fund the eighth grade class trip. An initial order form was sent home with all students this week, if you are interested in purchasing any.  We do sell these bags throughout the year as well, so you may consider purchasing some in the spring as well.
