Information about the start of the school year 2022-2023

August 01, 2022
By Santiago Christian School

Dear Parents,

We are almost two months into our summer vacation, but our staff has been working hard throughout the summer to prepare our campus for the new school year. God has been faithful to provide the new teachers that we need for the coming year, and they have already begun their orientation and professional development. Now, we are making final preparations to welcome our families back to SCS for the new school year.  Please read all the information below that contains important information for the start of the school year.

We pray that the Lord will bless you and your family in these final days of summer, and we look forward to being back together at SCS soon!

Important Dates and Information:

• Orientation Day – Wednesday, August 17

o   Elementary School – Meet Your Teacher – All elementary students (PreK-6) will come to school with a parent to meet their teacher and drop off their school supplies. Each family will receive an email from their teacher with their assigned time.

o   Secondary School – New Family Orientation – This orientation will be for new secondary students (grades 7-12) and their parents only. Returning secondary students will not participate in the orientation.

•  First Day of Classes – Thursday, August 18 – Regular schedule for all students starting at 8:00am

• Parent Open House – Thursday, August 25 – 6:00pm

o   All parents are invited to come to campus to meet their children’s teachers between 6:00pm and 7:00pm. At 7:00pm there will be a program for all parents to provide important information about the school year.

• Every Wednesday 1:00pm Dismissal Time

o   SCS is setting aside two hours every Wednesday for professional development to provide teachers with the professional training and time for planning and collaboration that is necessary to offer the best quality academic program possible. This will also provide students with additional time to complete assignments and catch up on missing work.

o   Students will still have a lunch period during the school day and will be able to purchase food from the cafeteria.

o   We will still have sports practices on Wednesdays from 3:30pm until 5:30pm (Girls Volleyball 6th to 12th grade, Boys Soccer 4th to 12th grade). It will be best for those students to go home and rest before practices. However, there will be supervision provided on campus at no additional cost through the sports program for students whose parents cannot pick them up and drop them off again for practice.
