Dear St. Michael Family:

As we begin the school year, it is important that each family understand their responsibility to complete service credit hours.  AS STATED IN YOUR ST. MICHAEL’S TUITION CONTRACT, ten (10) service credit hours are to be completed by June 1, 2010.  If you have a child graduating this year, your service hours MUST be completed by May 1st, 2010.
