St. Catherine's Montessori Fall 2019 Parent Survey

As part of the ongoing implementation of our Strategic Plan, we have a parent survey for you to complete. This survey, along with other information gathered, helps SCM strengthen our practices across the educational spectrum. This information will be used to continue to best actualize St. Catherine's mission.

 

Thank you in advance for taking time to complete this survey by Friday, November 22, 2019 . Please refer to the email sent out on Monday for the survey link. Fill out one survey per family. If you have multiple children please generalize your responses. Your voice and partnership is greatly valued.

Welcome back to the High School Corner!

We would like to take the opportunity to thank those who attended the High School’s performance of Thornton Wilder’s Our Town. To have approximately 115 attendees supporting a class of 11 students was beyond special. We are so blessed to have such a loving community!
