Be A Good Neighbor

Please do not block the driveways of neighbors or businesses. Also, we have had calls about speeding and student speeding in the neighborhood. Please discuss this with your daughter. I spoke with the students at morning assembly. The neighbors have said they will alert police if the matter continues.

Please look over the attached Safe Environment Program Overview to learn more about the program. Click HERE for more information on the Safe Environment Lesson.

If you would not like your daughter to participate in the program at school, you must contact Gavin Matherne via email by October 6th to receive a parent refusal form that must be completed and returned. His email is gmatherne@archbishopchapelle.org.
