PARENTS
NEW PALMER FAMILIES
Welcome New Palmer Families! Please keep an eye out for the following New Family events:
-
New Family Orientation (at start of the school year) - This is an evening gathering at Palmer to go over some basic information and answer questions.
-
New Family Mentor Program - Each new family is assigned a veteran family as a contact for any questions that arise.
-
New Family Welcome Breakfast (September) - Hosted by a veteran family, this breakfast is for new families and their mentors. It is a great way to meet other new families, as well as ask questions of veteran families in person. (We will host a virtual welcome breakfast in September)
Inclement Weather
Inclement Weather Policy (SCHOOL CLOSINGS)
The Diocese of St. Augustine and Palmer Catholic Academy cancels classes due to inclement weather as advised by the Superintendent of Catholic Schools. We do not follow St. Johns County.
Palmer utilizes a parent broadcast notification service to deliver important messages relative to school closings due to weather. It is imperative that parents keep the school updated with correct emergency phone numbers.
Inclement Weather Policy (SCHOOL REMAINS OPEN)
If inclement weather (heavy storms/lightning) occurs during carpool, the holding area may need to be closed for the safety of our students and carpool aides. If this happens, parents will be notified via a text alert. We ask for your cooperation and patience during these times.
