Information for Parents

Dear Parents,

The State and Archdiocese are changing the learning standards for your child's education.  I am part of a committee utilizing Inquiry Based Units, such as our Communities Unit, to develop learner outcomes.  These learner outcomes will be the foundation of the new archdiocese standards.  I have already participated in meetings for this and have been advised of more future meetings.  I am writing this so you may be aware of Saint Priscilla's elevated interest in developing your child's education, along with understanding the periodical need for a substitute teacher. 

Here are some links to further explore this change.
