Back to School Newsletter

8/16/2019

With summer coming to a close we are beginning to look forward to the new school year. With it comes new faces and new opportunities. We are excited to welcome two new teachers to our St. Peter's family. Christina Kaminski is our new K4/K5 teacher and Hailey Robran is our new 2nd grade teacher. They have been busy setting up their classrooms and are excited to meet everyone on back to school night.

Back to School Night
Please remember that back to school night is on August 28th from 4:30 to 6:30pm. Dress your best and be ready to get your school picture taken! This is also a great time to bring in your school supplies so that the teachers can get them sorted and organized before the first day of school. Mrs. Borkhuis will be in the office taking all paperwork that has not been turned in as well as tuition and lunch payments. Excited to see everyone!

Spirit wear/Uniforms
New this year we are going to have our spirit wear and uniform sales completely online. I have attached a link to the website that you will use to purchase these. You will need an access code, which is K6PDU to enter the site. Please remember that students are expected to wear red polos on Thursday's, which are church days. This link for purchasing will be open from August 19th-September 8th. Let me or the office know if you are having any issues.

Website Update
We were lucky enough to have a wonderful parent help with our website over the summer and it looks amazing! I welcome everyone to take a look and check out the new links and attachments. There are now tabs specific for Parent and Student Information that allows you to view the handbook, calendar, lunch menu, and supply list. As well as a section to purchase script and make online school payments. Great things truly are happening here at St. Peter's!

DSHA Leadership Conference
Divine Savior Holy Angels is hosting a leadership conference for middle school girls. This conference is aimed to help young girls boost their confidence and meet peers from across the Milwaukee area. It will be held on Friday February 7th from 9am-2pm. Flyers will be sent home the first week of school with more information regarding this event.

Dispensation from Mass Obligation - Archbishop Listecki has extended the dispensation of the obligation to attend Mass through August 2nd. Please consider your own health and the health of your family as you make the decision to come to Mass. Although we need not attend Sunday Mass in person, Archbishop still expects us to spend at least an hour in prayer and contemplation each Sunday.

Beginning June 11th - Churches may resume weekday Masses on a limited basis and are allowed to pray only two weekday Masses in addition to the weekend Masses. St. Peter's has chosen to have Masses on Thursday and Fridays, both at 9:00 am. We will be allowed 50 people to attend the weekday Masses.

Beginning May 30th we will be able to offer on a limited basis public Masses here at St. Peter’s. We will be limited to a maximum of 50 people at each Mass (that includes the priest, the reader, the musicians, the ushers and the congregation). Fr. John and I have received the necessary permissions for each of us to offer Mass publicly again and we have been purchasing some of the various materials we will be needing to clean the church after each Mass. We do need your help as well. We will use only the main entrance to the church so that we can count the people coming in and in the interest of everyone’s health, we will need to turn people away once we have reached our limited capacity. We are asking you to bring and wear your own mask while at Mass (we are still waiting to get the very limited number of masks we have ordered). The same is true for gloves if you would feel more comfortable wearing gloves. The first five to ten people in the congregation at each Mass will be expected to stay to help with cleaning the church after Mass. I remind all of you that the Archbishop has dispensed all of you from the obligation to attend Mass at this time. Please consider your own health and the health of your family as you make the decision to come to Mass. At least for the beginning we will be using our regular Sunday Mass schedule. Please check the parish website and online bulletin for any updates. Thank you for your cooperation and patience. ~ Fr. Mark
