Principal’s Corner:

Dear St. Ambrose Parents, Faculty and Staff,

We continue to work with state and local health officials through the Archdiocese of St. Louis regarding the first positive case of the COVID-19 coronavirus in St. Louis County on March 7th . The young woman who tested positive has a younger sister who attended the Villa Duchesne and Oak Hill School Father-Daughter dance last night.

All students, faculty and staff who have family members that attended the dance should please stay home and contact the St Louis County Department of Health Hotline at (314) 615-2660. Officials manning the hotline will give you information on testing and the need to self-quarantine.

If your student falls in this category, please contact the school office on Monday so that we can work with our teachers and get the classwork to you to ensure that your student does not fall behind.

If your student does not fall into this category, the decision about whether or not to send your child to school is always your decision. Should you decide it is in the best interest of your family to keep your student home, please notify the school.

If you or a close relative has traveled to an area where the COVID-19 coronavirus is present, you are asked to stay home, self-quarantine, and contact the St Louis County Department of Health Hotline at (314) 615-2660. In addition to providing a quality faith-based education, the safety and security of our students, faculty and staff remain our top priority. We will keep you updated with any new information that we receive from the Archdiocese of St. Louis and state and local health officials.

If you have any questions please contact me or the school office. God bless,
