SPRING BREAK-NO SCHOOL FRI., APRIL 1st - SUN., APRIL 10th. Return full day Mon., April 11th. You may wear shorts!
Dear Parents of St. Charles Borromeo School Students - On behalf of all associated with our St. Charles Borromeo School, I wish all in our school community a safe and renewing Spring Break. Upon return to school from Break on Monday, April 11th, we will begin prayerfully celebrating Holy Week, which initiates the most sacred time of the Church. On page 2-3 of this newsletter, to help focus our Lenten journey, I have included a nice summary of the beautiful events of Holy Week from Fr. Tom detailing times and events of the week. Thank you for selecting St. Charles for your children and may God bless our families, Church, and world. -Rob S.

Completing this assessment is the only requirement necessary and will verify how your family best qualifies for each source of tuition assistance. If you will have children enrolled at more than one Catholic school (including high school), only one FACTS Grant and Aid application for the 2022-2023 school year is required by including all children and each school. There is a $40 fee assessed by FACTS when submitting a Grant and Aid Application.

Applications received after this date will be considered to the extent that funds remain available.
