Do NOT set up a new account! Registration for daycare and aftercare will need to be completed via paper registration. Fees for aftercare and daycare are $25 per student.

*If your child will NOT be attending St. Cecilia for the 2025-26 school year, please let the OFFICE know for planning purposes.

We have some safety concerns that need to be addressed. In the morning for arrival, parents are to enter the gravel driveway located next to the white house and the church on Madison Pike. Drop off will begin once your vehicle safely is next to the designated yellow cones. In order to unload in a timely manner, we ask that you do not wait to drop your student off until you reach the front door. Everyone must unload by the yellow cones. Also, for the safety of our students and staff, no one should be parking in the center of the lot to walk their child across the line of traffic. All students need to be dropped off in the drop off line exiting on the right side of the vehicle closest to the yellow cones. If you must assist your child with carrying an item into school, we ask that you please enter the drop off line and wait until you can safely pull into one of the 2 designated spots at the entrance of the school. No cars should be entering directly from the top lot. Thank you for your attention to this safety matter.

We really need help in our cafeteria on a daily basis. Great way to earn Parent Partnership hours. Kitchen Help will assist the cafeteria with serving food. Cafe Monitor will assist students with opening items and cleaning tables.

You must be VIRTUS compliant. Parent hours need to be logged in to Sycamore for approval!
