A MESSAGE FROM THE HEAD OF SCHOOL

Welcome to St. Anne’s School (SAS). I am overjoyed to begin the legacy of what I know will be an exceptional experience for our students. The founding class of SAS, the First Cygnets, will share a bond unlike any other class that will follow in the school’s history; what an opportunity!

The First Cygnets will be integral in developing the school’s mission, vision, and values, which will forge the path for young women for years to come. I am very much looking forward to the passion, energy, and intellect the First Cygnets will bring to the corridors of the Cygnets Centre, the first home of St. Anne’s School, as they collaborate, connect, and support each other in this foundational year.

The Parent & Student Handbook serves as a resource for our community and highlights key information surrounding the school's daily operations, states the standards by which we hold our students accountable in all areas of school life, and points to programmatic features that are unique to St. Anne’s. The following pages summarize the school’s guidelines as we prepare for the First Cygnets program this fall.

Following a review of this important document, you are asked to complete the following forms through in the SAS Parent Portal: • A Contract with Parents & Students • Acknowledgement and Assumption of Risk

Whatever the personal or cultural values of families or students, the registration of a student at St. Anne’s School signifies their agreement and obligation to comply with the rules and disciplinary procedures as published in the most recent edition of the Parent &

Student Handbook. Please read over the entire handbook with your daughter.

As we develop the systems that will become part of the structure of SAS, the rules and regulations will often be referred to by the school’s administration, including your daughter’s teachers and advisor. These expectations will be reinforced throughout the school year at community events such as weekly assemblies and advisory sessions. These will become part of the fabric of all things St. Anne’s.

Collectively, we will all be part of an extraordinary voyage as we set out to develop the foundation for St. Anne’s School. I am confident the year ahead will be full of promise and opportunities, unlike anything else your daughter has experienced.

I eagerly anticipate welcoming you to campus and the Cygnets Centre this fall.

Sincerely,

Sabrina D’Angelo Head of School
