Manhattan Region Survey
Mr. Tweed, the regional superintendent, has asked that parents complete a parent survey regarding the on-line learning.
Dear families,
Our Catholic Schools have been providing home-based learning since March 23, 2020 and your feedback is important to us. Please take a few minutes to click on the link below and complete a short survey. We are so grateful for your partnership and support as we work together during this difficult time. We hope that your family remains in good health and stays safe during the days and weeks ahead.
Wishing you many Blessings,
Joseph M. Tweed
Regional Superintendent of Schools - Manhattan
Dear Parents,
I pray that this e-mail finds you well and safe.
Our lives have changed very dramatically over the last few
weeks and I know that parents in particular have been impacted by trying to
figure out how to manage remote learning and balancing the financial needs of
the entire family. Please know that we
are all committed to working together with you to make the experience better
for everyone, especially our students.
As we navigate a new playing field, we need to recognize
that it is not level. But together we
must recognize our positives: we have
highly qualified and devoted teachers, wonderful children and truly supportive
parents. I have been privileged to witness some outstanding examples of our
teacher’s creativity and ingenuity and student’s eagerness to learn in our
continuing online instruction. I am grateful to them and to you for your
cooperation in this new process of teaching and learning. Embracing this
challenge makes growth and success possible for all of our students.
Today, even in the midst of this new learning environment,
we continue to depend on your tuition payments to provide the funds to pay our
teachers and staff. In order for our
school community to continue to thrive, it has never been more important that
everyone fulfill their tuition obligation. But we also recognize that some of
you are facing your own financial challenges as a result of this pandemic. If
your family is experiencing a financial crisis, please let me know by e-mailing me at olqm1@aol.com
We have already ceased charging late fees so
as not to add to any family’s tuition obligation. Please know that delayed or partial payments
will not be penalized in any way. If the
current crisis has created new challenges for you, please be assured that we
will consider carefully any request to defer your tuition payments.
In addition, there are a variety of resources that are
available to you and your family through the Archdiocese, as well as other
organizations that have responded to this crisis.
The links to those services can be found on
our website. https://catholicschoolsny.org/covid-19/
Finally, be assured of my daily prayers for you and your
family that you may be blessed with peace, trust in God’s care, strong health,
and every good gift.
Sincerely yours,
Andrew G. Woods, principal
