CATHOLIC Schools

On April 17, 2020, Governor Reynolds extended the closure of all Iowa schools through the remainder of the 19-20 school year. Even though our students and staff will not return to our buildings this year, schools remain “in session” through their approved continuous learning plan. Our sincere gratitude to the teachers and staff working hard to provide resources and routines to students during this time. Additional resources and guidance for families is available on the COVID-19 webpage of the Department of Education website.

On April 2, 2020, Governor Reynolds extended the closing of schools until the 30th of April. During this time, each school will be providing continuous learning to students in a voluntary or required format. Teachers are working hard to provide students with educational opportunities and support learning during this time. They miss their students and cannot wait to get back in the classroom.

All Archdiocesan Catholic Schools remain closed through April 10th. Each school is providing academic learning opportunities, faith activities, and at least weekly personal contact with each student.  For questions, contact your school office directly as they are monitoring communications and classroom teachers are working from home to support their students.
Schools that operate daycares/early childhood centers are working hard to provide this important service for families, especially for children of essential employees.  Contact your local center for information about availability.

Governor Reynolds has announced that all Iowa schools should close for the next four weeks.  All Archdiocesan Catholic Schools will close immediately through April 10th.  Currently the governor is making provisions for daycare centers to stay open during this situation.  Additional guidance is being prepared and your local school/daycare will distribute new information as soon as it is made available.
