Student Supply Lists
Supply lists are now available online. Please make sure your child is fully prepared for school this September. See the lists for items needed on the first day of school. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated.
The Guardian - Special Summer Issue
As the 2011-2012 school year is about to begin, let’s take a quick look back at many of the accomplishments of 2010-2011.
As Always, VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!
St. Michael's parents and guardians -- some grandparents, too -- help manage the activities and events that assist school operations and lower costs to keep tuition in check. Their assistance in running events, fundraisers, the cafeteria, socials -- and, of course, the Feast of St. Michael's -- is one of the many things that makes St. Michael's the wonderful place that it is for your children. Please -- make a difference and volunteer your time. Download, print, and complete the Volunteer form -- then bring it to Back to School Night. We need your help.
ARQ Accelerated Reader List Updated
St. Michael's uses Accelerated Reader™, a software-based testing program that provides the essential practice component of the school's core reading curriculum. The latest book list is now available on the SMS website. Have your child get a head start on the ARQ reading requirement for the coming academic year. The lists are available sorted by Title, Author and Book Level.
