The department received 366 applications requesting more than $46 million in security enhancements. “That’s the kind of money that we do not have in our budget, and these are the kinds of things that we need to do,” said Julie DeGrez, principal of St. Germaine Catholic School. She appreciated the fact that nonpublic schools were allowed to apply for the grant as well, because many grant opportunities are only open to public schools. At St. Germaine, the money will pay to replace four sets of outside doors, upgrades to classroom door handle locks and for safety bollards to separate the parking lot from the school building. “All of our doors are locked all the time, but if they don’t fall shut properly and don’t lock, then it defeats the purpose,” DeGrez said. “We’ve been fixing it the best we can to keep it safe.”

Katie has recruited a couple of her friends, including Allison, and taught them how to make plarn and they have now crocheted the MCMM 10 pillows! The girls do this at home, on their own time, and are a great example of the huge impact caring hearts can make for the homeless. Their goal is to create an extracurricular club during the fall 2018.

TRAFFIC CONTROL: If you enter the school parking lot on the activity center side of the building in the morning, please do not park in the center section of the lot. You may either drop your child off in front of the activity center doors OR if you choose to walk your child into the building, please park by the Parish Center or by the brick wall on the south side of the lot and use the sidewalks. Please do not walk across the parking lot. Also, if you drop off at any of the Rockwood entrances, please drop off on the school side of the street so students do not have to cross Rockwood. In order to ensure the safety of all of our children, your cooperation is necessary and appreciated.
