Friends, in just the past couple days we have a seen a restart of the COVID Emergency Relief talks. There is a strong chance it could be attached to the "must pass" federal budget bill.
A bi-partisan, bi-cameral group in Congress released a new $908B framework and it is catching steam. We know the framework calls for $82B in education funding, but the exact legislative language in still in the works. While the Senate GOP proposal released Monday includes several favorable items for non-public schools, we have just a couple days to reach out to those members drafting this new language to ensure Catholic schools are included in the relief.
Our request continues to include the School Choice Now Act, as well as equitable services for private schools - but this time under Title VIII of ESSA, rather than Title I. (meaning a per pupil allocation)
Please circulate this Urgent Action Alert link widely to your email lists, social media and school leaders as soon as possible.

Beginning Thursday, December 3rd, we will be offering breakfast and lunch for any student, sibling, or anyone in the community who is 18 years or younger. The pickup time will be from 10:00-12:00. Starting next week, the pickup days will be every Monday and Thursday from 10:00-12:00. The pickup will be at the cafeteria door.
Beginning today, November 25, 2020, Saint Michael School will be going virtual through Christmas break.
We are grateful that we have been able to provide face-to-face instruction thus far but do not feel it is in the best interests of anyone to continue to do so at this time.
All of this has been very difficult for all of us, and I am so thankful for our faculty, staff, and families who have done so much to keep us safe and healthy.
Your support and commitment to Saint Michael School is wonderful. Let us keep all COVID-19 patients and their caregivers in our prayers.
Stay safe and healthy!

St. Michael School is busy preparing for the school year. We are creating a safe environment for all students. We are very fortunate that we have large classrooms and are able to socially distance, keeping all desks
6 feet apart. If you are concerned about large class sizes, please schedule an appointment to stop by today! We are currently accepting registrations in all grades. Financial aid is available.
Come experience the difference!!
*Each student needs to have two face masks.
*Each student must bring a bottle of water each day.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT:
"Please take action! Your help is needed! Governor Wolf and the PA Department of Education are looking to drastically REDUCE the amount of funding from the federal government that has been earmarked for ALL schools, including non-public and Catholic schools for COVID -19 relief. The Wolf administration is NOT in support of sharing the funds equitably. Please click on the link at the bottom of the attached letter and send your message in support of sharing the relief funds equally with ALL schools. Your voice matters! Our students, your children matter and deserve to benefit!" Click the link below to log in and send your message: https://www.votervoice.net/BroadcastLinks/bLoi7nwoDwEslKQVryFTuQ |
