Thank you for a wonderful 2019-2020 academic school year!
Below are some announcements and reminders as we end the school year.
SUPPLY LISTS:
Supply list have been posted on the school website (www.hfsny.org) under "News". They will also be posted on all the Class Pages. This year, we are working with School Tool Box. For your convenience, you can go to https://schooltoolbox.com/school-supplies/school/list-boxes/?schoolId=68135 and order your supplies online and have them shipped directly to your home. You can order all, none, or some of your supplies from School Tool Box. It is your choice.
OPTIONAL SUMMER WORK:
Since a majority of HFS students registered for the free virtual summer school, summer work posted by the teachers is optional. All optional summer work will be posted on the Teachers' Class Pages by the end of June. Be sure to go to the Class Page of the grade your child will be entering in September.
ARCHDIOCESE of NEW YORK OFFERS REGISTRATION FEE RELIEF
Register your child by July 1, 2020 at $125 per child. Each year, Archdiocesan schools ask families to re-enroll for the next academic year by paying a registration fee. This fee signals the family's commitment to their school and community. Because the Archdiocese recognizes the stress - emotional, physical and financial - that this pandemic has placed on all of us, we will be refunding those registration fees. Each family who enrolls for school year 2020-21, and remains enrolled, will receive a credit on their December 2020 tuition bill for the full amount of the registration fees they paid. We hope that this small gesture shows our families that we appreciate the sacrifices they make to provide a Catholic education for their children, and are deeply grateful for their faith in us. We are all in this together.
IMMUNIZATIONS and PHYSICALS
In the hope that students will be able to enter the building in September, we are encouraging parents to make appointments with their child's doctor in July or early August. Each year students have to be up to date with their immunizations and have an annual physical in order to return to school in September.
