We previously mentioned the Office For Catholic Education is building a task force to safely open schools come fall. The task force will officially be known as “Catholic Schools Onward, Best Practices and New Opportunities as We Move Forward” (referred to CSO for short). CSO is made up of about 30 individuals from our schools, which include principals, nurses, business members, teachers, religious leaders, parents, board members, and central administration. Each member received guidance from the State of Pennsylvania regarding expectations to reopen, CDC guidelines, and plans from schools that already reopened. Working together in subcommittees, we will develop specific practices and precautionary measures our schools will use...

The school year ended quite differently than years past at Saint Eugene School. However, due to the need for social distancing, we were still able to come together while remaining apart and celebrate our students as they closed out the school year.  On the last day of school at SES, we had our Grades K-7 awards ceremony as usual. This year it was a Zoom assembly. Congratulations to all the award winners. All of our students worked hard from home in our 3rd trimester. Way to go! Awards include Be A Better Me, Peer Mediation, the Thaddeus Basara Memorial Scholarship Award (to be put towards tuition), the Anthony and Matthew Meo Memorial Scholarship (also put toward tuition), the Harry Smalley Award, the Saint Eugene Award and the Strive to be a Saint Acknowledgement.  All of our students worked hard this year on both their schoolwork and creating a loving environment within their classrooms.  We miss you all! Have a good summer!

Happy Father’s Day from Saint Eugene School!   St. Joseph, guardian of Jesus and chaste husband of Mary, you passed your life in loving fulfillment of duty. You supported the holy family of Nazareth with the work of your hands. Kindly protect all the fathers who trustingly come to you. You know their aspirations, their hardships, their hopes. They look to you because they know you will understand and protect them. You too knew trial, labor, and weariness. But amid the worries of material life, your soul was full of deep peace and sang out in true joy through intimacy with God’s Son entrusted to you and with Mary, his tender Mother. Assure those you protect that they do not labor alone. Teach them to find Jesus near them and to watch over him faithfully as you have done. To all the fathers within the Saint Eugene School community, Happy Father’s Day!

Catholic schools in Philadelphia are already planning for September with a special 27-person task force consisting of educational professionals, business leaders, and medical experts.
