Dear Parents,

I hope this letter finds you and your family settling into a positive routine after the first few days of school.

I am writing to let you know that in accordance with the Diocese of Paterson September 2021 Guidelines, we will be adjusting our start date for our Religious Formation program. In the ever changing landscape of COVID 19, we are constantly being called to make last minute adjustments. Therefore, we will have the Glory group meet in-person on October 3 and the Praise group meet on October 10. The initial lesson will be covered over time, and the remainder of the schedule will stay in place as was initially published at the end of August. You can find the schedule for the year on our website. https://www.st-pius-x.org/schedule-of-lessons

Additionally, I am in need of several catechists(volunteer teachers) for Kindergarten, First, and Second grades. If we do not have parents volunteer, then those specific sections may have to be cancelled. Please contact me immediately if you are interested in assisting. Team teaching is always encouraged. 

Finally, as I wrote in my August 30th letter, we are all excited to welcome everyone back to our St. Pius X Parish family. Please stay connected to us through our Social Media accounts, and please register for Flocknote - our new communication system. To register, text SPX24 to 84576. Together we will continue to grow our community and share in the love of Jesus Christ.

Prayerfully,

Kurt R. Kilanowski

Dear Parents and Guardians,, 

In a few weeks,our Religious Formation Program will open a new school year in-person for the first time since March 2020. 

Before we begin classes, I want to thank you, our parents, our catechists, and our students, for your hard-work, patience, and commitment to sharing your faith during our virtual year. . 

The unparalleled cooperation and commitment was wholeheartedly invested in order to ensure that all the students continued their faith-based education in a healthy and safe environment. Working together, I believe we have emerged with a faith community who values and appreciates celebrating and sharing our love of Jesus together. 

Your child’s catechist will be sending you communications regarding your classroom location, including details of any practices and procedures that will be in place for the students this year.. Since we welcomed Craig High School in June of 2020, our classrooms have a new look. I ask that everyone make a special effort to keep the space neat and clean out of respect for our new neighbors.

A decision regarding masking has been made by the Governor..Executive Order Number 251 was signed on August 6, 2021 and mandates the wearing of masks inside for teachers,,students, and visitors..This remains in effect until such time as it is “revoked or modified” by the Governor. We will advise you of any changes made..Please understand that this is a mandate made by the Governor. Any efforts and energies to challenge this mandate should be addressed to the parties who made this decision. 

We are all excited to welcome everyone back to our St. Pius X Parish family. Please stay connected to us through our Social Media accounts, and please register for Flocknote - our new communication system. To register, text SPX24 to 84576. Together we will continue to grow our community and share in the love of Jesus Christ.

Prayerfully,
