View this email in your browser Dear STM Community, The site visit from the San Francisco Department of Public Health is scheduled for Friday of this week. The classrooms and learning spaces are prepared, and we have closely followed the Schools Best Practices Directive from the SFDPH. Our website has the most updated copy of our STM REOPENING AND INFECTION MITIGATION PLAN which outlines our current protocols. We will inform you if any major updates are made. St. Thomas More Fun Run Update FUN RUN is today! We hope you have a great afternoon of activity and exercise with your family. Take pictures to share with your sponsors and with the school! Know how grateful we are that, despite the challenges we are currently facing, you took the time to actively participate in getting sponsors and raising funds for our beloved school and for our amazing students. We have surpassed our goal of $60,000 and sponsorships are still coming in.  The organizing company is going to need a huge truck to bring all the prizes earned by our students to school.

Marvin says, "You can tell that people are so eager to go back to church". For the past two weekends he has been able to celebrate Mass in front of the church. Starting this weekend, he will do all Masses inside the church following all safety protocols. He invites you to return to regular Mass when you feel that it is safe to do so.  For now, English Masses are Saturday Vigil 5pm and 10am Sunday. The dispensation from attending Mass on Sundays remains in effect. If  you are not yet comfortable to attend church in person, you may join through the STM FB page livestream Masses. Enjoy the long weekend as we celebrate both Columbus Day and Indigenous Peoples' Day. Kind Regards, Marie Copyright © 2020 St. Thomas More School, All rights reserved.
