NANCY’S NEWS
Our Lady of Unity Catholic School
2017-2018 School Year
2646 S. 34th St. Kansas City, KS 66106
Dear Parents & Friends,
I am sure that the students and
staff enjoyed the impromptu day
off yesterday because of the
weather. Those days do not
seem to happen as much as
they did when I was a kid. As a
reminder, if school is cancelled
because of weather, you will
always find it on the three major
TV channels, ABC, NBC, and
CBS. In addition, it is also
usually on our Facebook page.
If you have not liked our page
yet, please do. You will find a
lot of informational news there
as well as some great pictures
and activities with our students.
At other times, if there were a
reason for school to be
cancelled during the day or we
need to make a group
announcement, we will continue
to use the School Messenger
system, which will send emails
and phone calls. Please make
sure that we always have the
most up to date emergency
information for your child. Stay
warm and safe this weekend.
God Bless!
Nancy Butters
