Catholic Schools are distributing free home Covid-10 rapid test kits. At home testing may be less accurate than test results performed by a health care provider. For this reason, there are times when you should follow up with your provider and arrange for another COVID-10 test to confirm your at home test result (a confirmatory test, such as a molecular PCR Test.) For example: If you have any COVID symptoms after being in close contact and test negative on an at-home test, it is critical that you confirm the negative at-home test with a PCR test.

December 6th is the day we celebrate the Feast of St. Nicholas. SAS students got a special surprise visit from St. Nicholas himself! Treats were left in the shoes of the Pre-K children, which were left in the hallway outside their classrooms. St. Nicholas paused on his tour of the school to take a picture with a few of our 8th graders. Happy St. Nicholas Day to all!

Giving Tuesday is November 30, 2021. GivingTuesday is a global generosity movement unleashing the power of radical generosity. GivingTuesday was created in 2012 as a simple idea: a day that encourages people to do good. Since then, it has grown into a year-round global movement that inspires hundreds of millions of people to give, collaborate, and celebrate generosity. Any type of giving or generosity or kindness count and we all have something to give! Consider volunteering in your neighborhood, or parish or local community....and of course if you'd like to donate a little to St. Augustine School, click the link to make an online donation. We have several capital improvement projects you might contribute towards, including a new roof and a new playground. Thank you for participating!
