The first day of school is Thursday — and welcome week is in full swing.
A heartfelt thank-you to every family who came out to the Handel’s fundraiser to support our school community. New around St. Cyril? Meet your Parent Association board — our introductions are easy to browse on the site. And on Thursday morning, join us for the Welcome Back Breakfast in the Hall, right after the Blessing of the Backpacks on the first day of school.
With gratitude, The Parent Association Board
