Salina Catholic School Families,
Thank you for your patience and understanding today as we experienced delays with our app messaging system. Unfortunately, the system was temporarily down, which impacted the timing of our communication.
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your flexibility as we worked through the issue. Thank you and stay safe!
We are experiencing delays with our alert system sending texts, phone calls, and emails alerting our families about the 1:30 dismissal. Please help us share the word to families. You may receive multiple texts/calls/emails as it is resolved. Thank you for bearing with us and for your patience.
SMGS/LNL: Due to expected weather conditions and out of an abundance of caution, LNL and SMGS will dismiss today at 1:30 PM. If you would like to pick your child up earlier, you are free to do so. Thank you for your flexibility during this time.

Dear Parents and Guardians,
I am writing to share an important update regarding student cell phone use in our Catholic schools.
As you may be aware, the State of Kansas has enacted a new “bell-to-bell” law that will require schools to prohibit student use of personal electronic devices during the entire school day. In response, we are developing a diocesan approach that both meets this requirement and supports our mission of forming the whole person—spirit, mind, and body.
I invite you to read the full letter outlining these expectations and the vision behind them at the link below: A New Chapter for Our Schools: "Bell-to-Bell" Cell Phone Expectations.
This change represents more than a policy shift. It is an opportunity—one that calls us, as schools and families, to work together in helping our young people develop healthy habits, deepen relationships, and grow in their faith.
As always, thank you for your partnership, your trust, and your shared commitment to forming disciples of Jesus on mission.
Gratefully,
Geoff Andrews
Superintendent of Catholic Schools
Diocese of Salina
