April 10, 2020 From the President President Kate Levesque shared this message of hope and faith directly with the student body yesterday morning. The administration of Ursuline Academy shares their wishes to the entire community for a happy and healthy Easter for all.
In compliance with Governor Baker's order, Ursuline will continue to educate our students through remote learning until May 4, 2020; all on-campus activities are suspended through May 4 as well. We will continue to reevaluate and communicate our plans as the coronavirus health situation evolves. Please visit our COVID-19 Community Resources page for more information.
Updates and Announcements Stay at Home Reminder The need for everyone to adhere strictly to the social distancing recommendations from public health authorities is ESPECIALLY important for the next couple of weeks. Even though you may feel healthy, you can transmit the virus to loved ones without intending to if you gather with other people. We know that nobody wants to jeopardize the health of older relatives or those facing existing health issues. PLEASE, STAY HOME FOR THEM! WE CAN DO THIS!! (For a lighthearted reminder from Julia Louis-Dreyfus, click here.) No School Friday and Monday
Attendance Reminder If a student is unable to participate in her remote learning for the day, we kindly ask that the following actions are taken:
Technology Tips for Parents
Classroom Spotlight Ms. Mahoney - AP Spanish Language and Culture
Ms. Brown - AP Biology For their unit test on DNA structure and replication, Ms. Brown's AP Biology students created a video explaining the concepts. Hand gestures were involved.
Ursuline Prays Together Lenten Prayer Service Our campus ministers distributed the link for a Lenten Prayer Service to all students today. Please ask your daughter to share the service with you. We extend our appreciation to our campus ministers and other members of the community for helping to create this opportunity for families to come together on this holiest of weekends to pause for reflection and prayer. A blessed and safe Easter to all.
