To maintain current social distancing standards and to continue to meet the academic needs of our students, we have established a updated classroom capacity for each grade.  Based on the square footage of our classrooms, our new capacity will be a maximum of 20 students per classroom and 40 students per grade.

TUITION FINANCIAL COMMITMENT POLICY 2021 - 22

• All students, Kindergarten through 8th grade will need to have a face covering for when it is needed here at school.  It is our goal to keep students together by grade as much as possible, but per the State of Michigan current Phase 4 requirements, all students in grades K-8 will need to wear a face covering at school.
• Mask Guidelines:
  • All masks or buffs/gaiters must be a solid color of black, navy blue, Spartan green or red.
  • Masks must not have a logo or design unless purchased from Squad Locker with the St. Thomas Aquinas Parish School logo  click here for the Squad Locker link .
  • K-2 - It is preferred that K-2 students have buffs or gaiters to ensure that the piece stays on the child and is less likely to be lost.
