Discipline Policy for PSR
As a reminder to all, our discipline policy for PSR classes consists of 2 verbal warnings and upon the 3rd warning the child will be sent down to sit with Sara Mack in the hallway and may require a phone call to the parent by either Theresa or Melissa. Please remind your kiddos to be respectful of their teachers. Our catechists our volunteering their precious time to assist our kids on their spiritual journey and we really want to show our appreciation for them. A good attitude and respectful behavior goes a long way! Thanks
Students Exiting after PSR
As a reminder - All PSR students should be exiting the building through the basement main doors after class. Thank you!
