SEPTiembre 2021

Dear families and friends of Siena,

It is good to have our students and staff back in our buildings for another school year! The first days filled with nerves are a thing of the past and everyone seems to be settling into their routines.

Our theme this year is "Stronger Together." As we work toward enhanced academic, extracurricular, and faith development at all six of our schools, we are reminded daily of our mission of inspiring students to be who God created them to be.

God bless,

Kimberly Gardner

Chief Advancement Officer, Siena Catholic Schools of Racine

Todos los estudiantes, profesores, personal y visitantes de Siena deben usar máscaras en este momento. En el caso de que se informe un caso positivo, las máscaras disminuyen en gran medida la necesidad de poner en cuarentena, manteniendo así a los estudiantes en el aprendizaje escolar.

Se requiere que las familias proporcionen máscaras limpias a sus estudiantes todos los días.

¡Bienvenido de nuevo al colegio! Me complace servir como director académico de las escuelas católicas de Siena. ¡Ha sido un honor conocer a nuestro personal y estudiantes y regresar a casa a una comunidad maravillosa! Como graduada de St. Edward '94 y St. Catherine's '98, Siena se siente como una familia.

Valoro la educación. Asistí a North Central College y tengo una licenciatura en historia y recientemente obtuve mi doctorado de UW-Milwaukee en Educación Urbana con énfasis en Currículo e Instrucción.

Valoro a nuestros estudiantes. Creo que la educación brinda oportunidades para nuestros estudiantes. Nuestra visión apoya a nuestros graduados preparados para el éxito en la universidad, la carrera, la comunidad y la Iglesia. Mi objetivo es servir a nuestra comunidad de Siena y apoyar nuestra misión y visión para que los estudiantes puedan tener las oportunidades educativas necesarias para tener éxito en el camino elegido.

Valoro las celebraciones. No dude en unirse a mí en Twitter para celebrar nuestras escuelas de Siena. Puede twittear incluyendo los hashtags #sienaspirit #strongertogether o buscar publicaciones existentes usando los mismos hashtags. Reconozcamos y celebremos el trabajo de nuestros estudiantes y personal aquí en nuestra familia Siena.

Valoro a la familia. Hay un vínculo especial para aquellos de nosotros que nos graduamos de las escuelas de Siena y estoy emocionado de tener más Ángeles futuros que se unan a nosotros en ese vínculo en junio de 2022.

Bendiciones,

Parisa

7th grader Christian P. took it upon himself to install new tetherballs and basketball hoops for John Paul II Academy over the weekend. We love to see this level of care for a school community! Thank you, Christian! The Cardinals are blessed to have you in their corner!

(We'll try not to hold that Vikings jersey against you...)

Dr. Susan Savaglio-Jarvis is the new principal at St. Rita Catholic School and she loves to keep her families up-to-speed on life with the Royals. If you haven't had the opportunity already, head on over to the St. Rita Facebook page to watch some of the "Dr. Sue's View" videos!

St. Catherine’s High School has a long-standing tradition of taking time to build community within their classes by doing yearly retreats focused on the Dominican Pillars of study, prayer, service (ministry), and community. Another beloved tradition they have is the focus on caring for others in our community; this day of service is called A Day With A Purpose. On Tuesday, August 31, freshmen and sophomores had class retreats while upperclassmen were at various sites in the community helping with service projects. Please continue to pray for the SCHS community as they reflect and take action!

You might have seen the Siena admissions team and various volunteers over the summer, whether at the 2010 Farmers Market, Animal Crackers at the Racine Zoo, Racine First Fridays, or the Kenosha Harbor Market! If you missed them, don't despair as the team is gearing up for a BUSY fall season! School visits, the St. Cat's Open House, private tours of all schools, Party on the Pavement, the SOLES Walk for Catholic Education, Boo at the Zoo...it is all happening!

If you have a recruitment/admissions idea or would like to help spread the word about Siena Catholic Schools, please reach out to admissions@sienacatholicschools.org. And if you have friends or neighbors who might be looking at their educational options, please direct them to the Inquiry Form or have them email/call 262-833-5515.
