PARENT INFORMATION

We attempt to keep our parents informed and up-to-date on what is happening in the school.

Dear St. Elizabeth School Community,

As you know, we have delayed the opening of the 2020-21 school year to September 8th.

This decision was made to help prepare the faculty and staff with training and practice of guidelines needed for the safe implementation of our Health and Safety Plan created specifically for St. Elizabeth School. We believe that taking the maximum precautions now is the best way to minimize an outbreak in our community.

Throughout the duration of this closure, please be alert for updates or official correspondence from the school via Option C Parent Alerts and the school website under "Parent Information".

The mission of Saint Elizabeth Elementary School, which has a strong tradition of Catholicism and academic excellence, is to empower all students to be lifelong learners living in close relationship with God. We inspire our students by focusing on high academic standards in a loving, caring, and secure environment.

* our school community works to ensure an environment that encourages Christ-like living and responsible stewardship of all God’s creation.
* our school utilizes a curriculum determined by national, state, and diocesan standards and is implemented by a staff of highly qualified teachers; education is the shared responsibility of the school and home.
* the goal of education is to develop critical thinking and problem solving skills that will ultimately create lifelong learners and responsible citizens.
* every individual, as a child of God, has a moral responsibility to actively serve others as Jesus did.
* serving others will create respectful and responsible citizens of the global and digital community.
