Our first day of school, a unique tradition at SCC, will be retreats for all grades on Wednesday, August 13, 2008. Please check the Comet website www.scc-comets.com for report times and information regarding the places where the retreats will be held. This information will be available during the first week of August, so do not forget to log on and check it out!

SCC will hold its first annual Book Day on Thursday, August 14, 2008. All students must attend and should arrive in full uniform on this day to receive their books for their classes, computers, locker assignments/combinations, and to take their ID/school pictures. Picture envelopes are enclosed for you to fill out to order these school photos from Romaguera. A schedule for Book Day will be available the first week of August on the Comet website www.scc-comets.com We hope that this day will prove to be an efficient and effective way of handling classroom business.

Friday, August 15, 2008 will be the first full day of classes for students. The first bell will ring promptly at 7:30 a.m. for the beginning of classes and we will dismiss at 2:30 p.m. Students should bring all supplies and books with them on this day and be in full uniform.

Just a reminder to parents who may still have outstanding balances: balances that are not paid up will prohibit students from attending book day as well as subsequent class days until the balance has been paid. This includes any delinquent monthly payments. Please handle the payment of these funds as soon as possible. Regular office hours will be in place beginning August 4, 2008.
