Terrie will check PowerSchool to make sure your number is in the database correctly. If you do need to contact Terrie, please make sure you provide your full name and cell phone number (along with student name) for her to verify.

St. Patrick School has been notified by the USDA that effective Thursday, September 17, 2020, St. Patrick School will be allowed to serve lunch to all students free. This opportunity will last until the end of December, or until current funds established for this program run out. This is a great opportunity for our St. Patrick School families, and it also helps to ensure our students are eating healthy and ready to learn without the burden of financial obligation. According to School Nutrition Association (SNA) President Reggie Ross, “These waivers ensure schools can continue to safely meet students’ nutritional needs this fall. In the midst of a pandemic, no family should have to worry about their child missing out on healthy school lunch. School meal programs face unprecedented challenges and need the assurance that these critical waivers will be available through the entire school year. SNA will continue working with USDA and Congress to further extend these waivers to support school meal programs and the students we serve.”
God Bless,
Michael J. Volk, Principal
