Governor Strickland has declared this week Arts in Education Week. His proclamation reads in part "Arts education can enable students to develop critical thinking and problem solving skills that will give them the kind of creative and competitive edge they need to succeed in today's economy. Study of the arts can provide students with the communication skills, knowledge, determination and cross cultural understanding necessary for success in the global information age." We are fortunate here at St. Francis to have the opportunity for our students to participate in the visual and performing arts through art classes, music and strings, and drama club. We salute all those staff members involved in the education of our children!!

If you have setup an account with our Cafeteria Point of Sale System, Nutrikids, you can view your child's transactions online (i.e. lunch/snack purchases). It is important for parents to be aware of your child's spending habits in the cafeteria. Please be sure your child knows whether he or she may purchase snacks. Also, please remember to label all envelopes sent to the school.

To view purchases for as many as the previous 30 days, login to MyNutrikids.com and click the History link next to your student's name on the MyKids page.
