REACH program held their first meeting on Saturday, 9/24. where the eighth graders met their mentors who will help guide them through the process of applying for and getting accepted by their high schools of choice.  On October 15, the mentors will go with the 8th graders to the PA Convention Center to meet the representatives of all the Philadelphia area high schools.

Transportation
There are school buses for students in all grades.  In order to be entitled to this free transportation, students must live 1 1/2  or more miles from school and within city limits.
Anyone riding a bus must take the same bus in the morning and afternoon.  If for some reason a student is not going to ride the bus in the afternoon, a parent must write a note explaining why..  If no note, the student will be sent home on the bus.
- Bus transportation information will be available shortly.  We are working with the Philadelphia School District to get the buses we need for our students.  Last school year, the city started a program to reimburse parents who took their children to the school themselves.  It may be renewed again this school year.  You will have to fill out a form to do this; we will have a link once we get the information.
At this time, we know that students will be dropped off at Holy Redeemer by 7:30 in the morning and will be picked up by 2:30 in the afternoon.
