We will host a College Info/Junior Parent Information Night to share important information about the college application process. While this meeting is focused on junior parents/families, parents of younger students are welcome to attend. Students are also welcome to attend with their families. This session will also include information on admittance/denial factors, scholarship opportunities, and academic/leadership essentials for those interested in attending more selective colleges and/or pursuing highly competitive majors, programs, and scholarships.

It’s our favorite time of the year – let’s get this "PADDY" started! Our STVM families always go above and beyond in supporting our teachers and staff, and once again, we’re reaching out for your help to throw a successful St. Patrick’s Day Party, sponsored by Parents' Club, on Friday, March 14th!

Please check out the SignUp Genius link and consider donating items for the Teacher St. Patrick’s Day celebration. All donations should be turned in to the front office by Thursday, March 13th. Venmo donations (@STVM-ParentsClub) are always welcomed and appreciated! Thank you in advance, Irish families. YOU SHAMROCK!!!

This will be an informational session to assist parents with the OH/ID Funding portion of the College Credit Plus Requirements for their students to participate in the CCP Program for the 2025-26 Academic Year.

Additionally, we are encouraging ALL parents of current and future freshman Classes of 2028 and 2029 to attend this meeting. STVM will transition to having all students take CCP speech because this class is required for both high school and college graduation credits. This move will also free up space on students' schedules, allowing them to explore other course offerings during their time at STVM.  

An email was sent on Thursday, February 13, 2025 outlining the registration steps, which can be found here.

All Forms and the Registration payments are due by March 15, 2025. Please do not email paperwork to the school. You or your student can drop off paperwork at the front office during business hours (7:30am-3:30pm) and 5:00pm-7:00pm every Tuesday and Thursday in February. Staff will answer any questions during those hours as well.

Having Blackbaud issues or have questions regarding paperwork? Email us at registration@stvm.com.
