Wednesday Wire, May 6, 2026

We are grateful for the many parents and grandparents who generously give their time to serve our school community. Anyone wishing to volunteer in any capacity at St. Louis School (library, dining hall, coaching, field trip driving, etc.) must have current VIRTUS training and a signed Code of Conduct on the VIRTUS website. Step-by-step instructions for completing both requirements can be found in today’s Wednesday Wire. Thank you for helping us keep our school a safe and supportive environment for all students.
