TRANSPORTATION REQUEST
Effective with the 2008-2009 school year, all
public school districts are requiring parents to complete a bus
transportation request form for each student.
If parents do not complete this form, the local public school
district will not provide transportation for that particular student.
Forms must be returned to the Main Office by March 31st.
Any questions, please contact Mrs. Jane Schortz at (610) 866-0791,
Extension 17.

WEATHER NOT PERMITTING
Since our
local public school district transports the majority of our students, in
the event the Bethlehem Area School District is closed due to inclement
weather, Bethlehem Catholic High School will not be in session.
Announcement to this effect will be made over WFMZ-TV, Channel 69
and over the local radio stations; i.e., WLEV-FM 100.7 – WCTO-FM 96.1
– WEST-AM 1400 – WAEB-AM 790 and WAEB-FM (B-104).

HELP AVOID AN ACCIDENT
Parents
are asked to please follow this regulation:
No student should be dropped off or picked up in the front of
the building. This is a
definite safety issue and must be followed to avoid any problems with
staff and buses driving in and out of the area.
Please adhere to this both in the morning and in the afternoon.
Students should be picked up and dropped off either on the gym or
the auditorium side. We need
everyone to follow the traffic signs posted.

DRIVER EDUCATION PROGRAM
Our
Driver Education Program is sponsored through the Colonial IU #20 with
financial support from the Bethlehem Area School District.
Both the classroom and the on-the-road phases are taught by Mr.
Grasso, who is also employed by the IU and is a state-certified Driver
Education instructor. He is
also certified by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to administer the skill
test for the actual driver’s license.
Sophomores
are scheduled for 30+hours of classroom theory. Six hours of the on-the-road phase are scheduled mainly
during the school, after school and during the summer months.
Completion
of both phases of the course allows student eligibility for insurance
reductions and receiving the senior license one year after securing the
junior license. Some
students, who already have their driver’s license, take the on-the-road
phase to improve their driving skills and to be eligible for the benefits
listed above.
Students
may sign up for the on-the-road phase by contacting Mr. Grasso or call his
office (610) 866-0791, Extension 33.
