Registration Fee:  $50.00 per family non-refundable registration fee on or before February 15, 2008.  After February 15th, $100.00 per family.

 

Fund Raising Obligation:  Since tuition does not cover all the costs associated with the education of our students, each family is required to sell and/or purchase items worth $400 each year.  The fund raising activities that will count towards the obligation, will be announced at the beginning of the school year.  If you do not want to participate in the fund raisers, you have the option of paying $300 directly to the school by October 1st.

 

Academic Year:  The academic year will follow the Stafford Public School Calendar as approved by the Stafford Board of Education with the following exceptions: Kindergarten will graduate the first Friday in June.  The eighth grade will graduate on the Sunday before the last day of school.  All other students will attend school until the last day designated on the Stafford School Calendar regardless of the number of snow days that the public schools have after that date.

 

Latch Key:

 

Our Latch Key Program serves our St. Edward Parish Family before and after school from 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 a.m. and from 2:45 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Friday each day school is open.   If there is an early dismissal, there is no Latch Key after school.  If there is a late opening, Latch Key will begin at 8:30 a.m. The Latch Key rate is $6.00 / hour based on ¼ hour increments.

 

During Latch Key, older students must work on their homework while younger students without homework are playing with toys in the pre-school classroom. The Latch Key program is supervised by the 2004 Connecticut Teacher of the Year, Mrs. Karen Simon.
