Weekly Monday Memo
Every Monday the school sends an email with pertinent details for the school community. This will always include a note from the principal, important dates & announcements, sports & clubs updates, PTC/Volunteer opportunities, and other news. If you are not on the mailing list, email office@holychildnm.com
Classroom Communications
One of the benefits of HCCS is that teachers have room to exercise their unique talents and gifts. Every teacher comes with different communication methods/styles. Touch base with your child's teacher so you will know what to expect for communication this year. Every teacher communicates - it's only the method that changes from teacher to teacher!
The school has a very active Facebook page that frequently spotlights activities, students, and aspects of faith and education at HCCS
