Parent-Teacher-Student conferences will be held on Wednesday, October 8th from 1:30-7:00 p.m. and Thursday, October 9th from 8:00 a.m. - 11:00 a.m.  Only conferences during these designated times count as an official conference.  This counts as a day of school so students that do not attend will be marked absent.  Student-led conferences allow an important opportunity for students to take charge of their own learning and share that learning with the adults who matter most to their education.  Thank you for your partnership in this experience.

Please refer to your FACTS family portal for assigned time.

The Scholastic Book Fair is back! Book fair will be available for in-person and virtual shopping.  In-person shopping will begin for students in their homerooms October 6th - October 8th.  The Book Fair will also be open during conferences on October 8th (1:30 p.m.-7:00 p.m.) and October 9th (8:00 a.m.-10:00 a.m.).   We’re so excited to connect our community through the joy of reading and create a fun virtual experience for our kids.

Parents can set up an eWallet for your child(ren). You and family members can contribute to the eWallet and your child(ren) doesn't need to bring cash!

If you can’t make it to the Fair, then shop at our school’s Online Book Fair. All orders ship directly to your home, and shipping is free for book orders over $25. Your online orders will also benefit our school.

We can’t wait to bring the magic of storytelling to St. Gabriel.  Visit the book fair homepage at https://bookfairs.scholastic.com/bf/stgabrielarchangelschool.  

Third grade will lead the rosary aloud with all students on Wednesday, October 8 at 8:15 am. in the church.  Students are invited to bring a rosary from home to participate.
