I hope and pray you are all well. I am working hard on an opening date for our program. I am on a committee put together by the Diocese that is creating the guidelines for a safe reopen for our program. Most of what we are deciding looks very similar to what our school district is doing. We are currently looking at a mid-September start date. Registration will take place electronically or by mail. A form will be emailed or mailed to families and returned to my email or mailed to the church. One will be made available on the church's website and posted on the PSR Facebook page. Please send me your email address to ensure that I have a correct and current one (wdrow96@yahoo.com) Please be patient with us as we try to put the best plan in place for the safety and well being of all.
