Drop off/ Pick Up Procedures:
Grades K-6 will be meeting at St. Joseph School. Parents will need to walk them into the school to the door of the appropriate classroom. Please do not arrive prior to 10 minutes prior to the start of class, as catechists need to arrive and organize prior to the start of class. Please also make sure catechists are present prior to dropping off your child.
Pick up procedure: K-6 Please stay in the main hallway until your child’s catechists open the classroom door. Then you can proceed to the classroom to pick up your child. No child will be released to a sibling, an adult must pick up your child. If another parent is picking up your child, we must have written permission prior to pick up. Please email your child’s catechists and the director at religioused.leicester@gmail.com.

We can send a makeup packet with them the following week or arrange for a make up session if needed.
