The window to take the Panorama Spring Family Survey is now open (closes Friday, April 14). Please click on the link, choose our school, and complete the questions for your family. You only have to take this survey one time, regardless of how many children you have enrolled at St. Cecilia.

Please expect 33 questions that fall under three themes: Communicating with the School, Perceptions of Child, and School Environment. There are then five additional background questions at the end. There is one question that asks what grade your child is in and you are allowed to only choose one. Families with more than one child enrolled, please choose one grade level.

We utilize the Panorama survey data to check on the progress of our social-emotional learning (SEL) goals. Students have their own surveys, which they complete in the classroom, along with teachers and staff. By providing this information, we can continue to prioritize educating the whole child here at St. Cecilia.

Each family who completes the survey earns an out of uniform day for all of your children. This out of uniform day will be on Monday, April 17th.

Here is a reminder of our Panorama Fall Student results from the Fall of 2022. As you can see, we established our "needs improvement" areas and action steps to help improve in those areas. We are excited to see our students' and families' feedback this Spring.

THANK YOU to all of you for the support you provided for making the playground a reality. We raised $105,799 (the total cost of the equipment, installation, and Ecoturf poured rubber surfacing) in three short months!

Thank you to last year's chairs: Candice & Trevor Towey, Molly & Eric Neuman, and Maura & Joe Neideree. They helped push the vision and motivate our community around this project. Thank you to Quinn Kulik and Joe Kramer for being the voices for our school to get the equipment installed this school year. Thank you to our parents, grandparents, and donors who dug deep to bring this playground to our kids. It's a pretty special thing when we all come together for a common cause.
