Hello! Welcome to 3rd Grade with Ms. Kahn at St. Mark's Catholic School. 3rd grade is a big year full of growth academically, socially, and spiritually. During the year we will learn a wide variety of exciting things together, as a team! I cannot wait to see where the year takes us. 

**please be advised at COVID-19 Protocols will be updated when changes become available.** ​
COVID-19 Reminders
Please take your child’s temperature each morning before school. If it is above 100.4 your child needs to stay home. Call the school and let them know your child's symptoms.  
Please keep an extra mask in your child’s backpack. 
Your child needs to bring a water bottle each day. The water bottle filling station will be on, but the water fountains will be off.

Thank you!
