This site will be used to communicate health related information for parents and guardians. By observing suggested guidelines, families and the school are able to work together to ensure the health and safety of all the children in St. Louis School.
We now have required health forms and information available to download, for your convenience, on the school's home page under FILE.
If a family has a question or concern about a health-related issue, please contact Mrs. Barbara Pasley, Pittsford District School Nurse, at St. Louis School:
