Dear CTK parents,

I want to take this opportunity to welcome you and your child to another exciting school year at Christ the King School.  All of our faculty and staff are eager to begin what will be a fruitful, rigorous, and exciting experience for you and your family. 

Safety is the number one priority here at CTK, and we will continue to be vigilant in our fight against Covid-19.  Special safety regulations are still in place such as mandatory mask and social distancing policies outlined in the ADNY’s Covid-19 reopening plan.

Just like last year, we expect our students and families to do their part as well.  This means open communication with the school and cooperation with these essential policies even if they create inconveniences.
Much work has been done behind the scenes to put together a stellar instruction that meets the needs of our students and enables them to grow academically.  MAP testing throughout the year will assist our teachers in planning and day to day instruction.  Parents will have a role to play at home to ensure that the work done in the classroom is reenforced and practiced.

Our Catholic faith is ALWAYS central to our mission and the reason why our school exists.  We look forward to celebrating masses together as a school throughout the year and practicing our Catholic values through charity and service to others.

The parent/student handbook has been made available to all.  Our students and parents are responsible for abiding by these rules and expectations.

The Delta variant has delayed some of the wonderful, in-person plans and initiatives, FOR NOW.  The hope is that as the pandemic subsides, our Parent Volunteer Corps. will play an active role in organizing, planning, and fundraising for fun community building events at our beloved school.  Ultimately, what we are striving for is to allow our students to enjoy fun, memorable, and valuable experiences at their second home, Christ the King.

I am confident, that together, this will be a terrific year in which our children will thrive and achieve great successes!

I look forward to leading our school community through another fabulous year at CTK!

Sincerely,

Steven M. Iuso
Principal
