Dear Parents and Students! <\/em><\/p>\n

It is my pleasure to welcome all students of the Polish School of St. John Paul II to the new 2025-26 school year. Below you will find some essential information:<\/em><\/p>\n

    \n

      \n
    1. Student Drop-off and Pick-up:<\/u><\/em><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      \"\"<\/u><\/strong>The rules for student drop-off and pick-up will remain the same as in previous years. Students in grades IV\u2013XI<\/strong> will enter independently through the main entrance. Younger classes and preschool<\/strong>, during the first two weeks of classes, will meet 15 minutes before the start of lessons in the church yard (5:45 PM Friday; 9:45 AM Saturday<\/strong>). Each teacher will have a sign with their name and class number. At the start of lessons, children will go to their classrooms with their teacher and assistant. <\/em>After classes (8:45 PM \u2013 Friday; 12:45 PM \u2013 Saturday<\/strong>) children will be brought back to the meeting place.<\/em><\/p>\n

      Starting from the third week<\/u>, children should be brought to the main school entrance, where teachers will be waiting in the hallway. <\/em><\/p>\n

      For the safety of all students, during the first three weeks it will not be possible to drive children directly to the entrance doors. Starting in October, students may be dropped off at the doors through which they enter the school.<\/em><\/p>\n

      After classes, driving up to the school building will not be possible. The road will be closed, and teachers from Preschool through Grade 6 will escort students outside the school building.<\/em><\/p>\n

      3. <\/em>School Textbooks (Materials)<\/u><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

      Students registered in our school before September 1 will receive their textbooks during the first classes. Students registered on the first day of school will receive textbooks the following week.<\/em><\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Closing of the School Building During Classes<\/u><\/em><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        For the safety of our students, teachers, and board members, the school will remain locked during classes. Students are not allowed to leave the building on their own. In case of need, please contact the teacher (by phone, text message, or written note) or pick up your child in person. This applies to all students from preschool through the last high school class.<\/em><\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Parent School Duties<\/u><\/em><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          Just like last year, Parent School Duties will be in effect this school year. Each family is required to help once during the school year by supervising, which includes monitoring student behavior in the hallways and overseeing the cafeteria. <\/em>Families who cannot attend on their assigned date must pay a fee of $50 for absence (or find a replacement). If no notification is given, the fee for not showing up will be $70. We also remind you that the duty date can be rescheduled (we understand plans may change).<\/em>
          \nPlease choose a convenient date that fits your schedule and sign up for duty.<\/em><\/p>\n

          Parents’ Duty<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

          We sincerely thank you for your cooperation and involvement!<\/em><\/p>\n

            \n
          1. Religion Classes<\/u><\/em><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            Children who attend religion classes remain in the same classrooms for Polish school lessons. <\/em><\/p>\n

            See you soon!<\/em><\/p>\n
