​

Parent Text Messaging/Remind App- We send text messages for bad weather cancellations and delays, emergency information, general announcements/reminders. Remind is available for all cellular phones, regardless if it is a smart phone or not. The app is free. It is VERY IMPORTANT that every student’s family has this app. Obviously it is used for snow notifications, but should the school experience an emergency or a safety issue, this would be the way we communicate important information to families. 

A few things about the Remind app:

1- It is not a two-way text app. The school will not respond to messages received on Remind. 

2- The purpose is simply to get important information directly to you in a fast, convenient way. 

3-The App is free. 

 

Simply click on this link, from your smartphone and follow the prompts. If you do not have a smartphone, contact the office and we will get you set up on your current cell phone.

Girls JV/Varsity Volleyball -  Our girls are entering their first WPIAL season! The Volleyball calendar has been updated with all games, times, and locations. All JV/Varsity Home games are held at St. Mary’s Social Hall located at 118 Church Street, Brownsville. Our Home Opener is Thursday, September 10th and Senior Night is Tuesday, October 20th Please see the attached flyer for information about our themed nights for fans! Gate fee is $5, but we are offering a discounted $25 season pass. If you are interested in purchasing a pass, please reach out to Nena Startare asap. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1v_97mo7rGYYmEziX5kFXPJPxy7A6nO1j/view?usp=sharing

 

Early Registration Required for Winter Sports - -If you have not submitted any papers, no one knows you are playing! Winter sports are now in the planning stages. We are requesting forms (CCCS Registration, PIAA physical grade 7-12) and payment ($25 athletic fee + $50 per sport fee) to be submitted in advance (by September 11th) to guarantee we have enough athletes to field teams. If we are unable to field a team due to low numbers, your money will be refunded. Please keep in mind that your commitment is important. We spend money to enter leagues. It also takes time to coordinate schedules with other schools and gym rentals. Backing out right before the season starts is strongly discouraged due to the time, money, and energy put forth in this stage. If you have any questions, please reach out to Darci Gutosky.

Lunch Debit Program- GOOD NEWS! You can now DEBIT your hot lunch payments. No fees (like using PayPal, or the credit card machine in the office). Just complete the Debit Authorization Agreement and return it to the office. Two Payment options are available. You may choose to have $80 per month debited on the 15th of each month, or $40 biweekly debited every other Friday. (See attachment for dates). If, at the end of the month, your account still has a balance due, you will be billed for that amount and you can debit the remainder due at that time, or send in a check to cover the deficit. If, at the end of the month, your account has a credit due to you, this credit will be rolled over to the next month and at the end of the school year, if a credit still exists on your lunch account, you will be asked to choose if you want to roll it over to the next school year or receive a refund.
