Principal's Message
OLQA Families,
We hope everyone is having a restful and fun summer! We are hard at work at school getting things prepared for the next year. Big thank you to Mr. Emilio for all his hard work around the building painting and getting everything ready to go! Also attached is the school supply list. With Amazon Prime Days coming up next week, we want to make sure you're able to get school supplies early at the best deals.
Also if you have any questions or want to meet about anything for next year, feel free to drop by the school. We are all here from 9:00 to 2:00 each day and the summer is a great time to touch base before everything gets busy in September.
Hope the kids enjoy their time off!
Best,
James Sayer
Principal
Our Lady Queen of Angels School

Biweekly Newsletters Continue this Summer
We will send out biweekly newsletters in the summer. Our next newsletter will be sent out on Friday, July 26th.
Enrollment Part 2 Fee Past Due
The 2nd part of the enrollment deposit is now past due. The enrollment fee is $250 per student, included in your total tuition. $250 is often broken down into two payments, the first payment of $150 is paid when you finalize the enrollment for school year 24-25. The 2nd payment of $100 was due on July 1st in your FACTS account. Payments can also be made at the school in the form of money orders or checks. Please ensure to make this payment ASAP if you have not already.
School Supply List 24-25
We wanted to share our school supply lists early so that you can get ahead and pick up items early and on sale. The document is broken down by grade level, so make sure to check for your child's rising grade.
We also are adding 2 rolls of contact paper to the supply list. This will help ensure all books stay in good shape over the course of the school year. Here is a link on Amazon you can order.
