Note from the Principal

Good morning!


We had a wonderful Boosterthon last week and have raised over $13,000! Thank you to the HSA for putting on this fundraiser.


Our middle school will be returning to campus this week. We are so excited to see them back!


It's also Teacher Appreciation Week! If you wish to make a donation of lunch, breakfast, or just a treat, please contact the office.


Have a wonderful week!

Book Pick-Up/Drop-Off

Our next Book and Supply Pick-Up/Drop-Off will be on May 13th (5-6 PM). Due to the small number of students still needing book pick-up and the schedule change, there will be no organized book pick up on Friday. If you cannot make it to the Thursday time slot, please call or email the office for an alternative time. Students attending on campus and their siblings do NOT need to come to book pick up.

St. Mary of the Assumption CYO Track Team

This season, the St. Mary of the Assumption CYO will be starting a Track Team!



  • Students ages 7-14 may participate in track events. There will be a variety of events including the 100, 200, 400, 800 and 1600 meter races. Given the pandemic, track meets will be held either on Saturdays or Sundays at Elizabeth Seton HS. Locations and times will be announced the week prior to the meet.




  • Social distancing protocols will be in effect which may require 2 sessions. One session for girls and one for boys, to reduce the number of students at the track at a given time.




  • Each athlete will be allowed to participate in no more than 4 events. Once athletes complete their events, they must immediately leave the track.




  • There will be no practices at this time. Once additional restrictions are lifted practices may begin.




  • The cost to participate is $70. This cost is for the entire season.
