Volunteer News
One of the great aspects of All Saints School is the outstanding relationship between the PTO and the school and the support that the PTO provides to the school’s administration, teachers and staff. This relationship not only helps the school fulfill its mission; it also provides school families with valuable opportunities to gain insight into how wonderful our school is. We are extremely grateful for this valuable relationship and for the tremendous support that our school families provide to the school.
To start off our new year, Mr. Conroy announced All Saints Catholic School’s new theme for the 2021-2022 school year:
Lord, I thank you, for your merciful love and your faithfulness.
Learn more about our school theme and how our pastor Fr. Lee Roos came to select the theme based on Psalm 138, by viewing the video link below.
All Saints is excited for the start of the 2021-2022 school year with K-8 students beginning on Monday, August 23 and our Pre-Kindergarten students joining us on Monday, August 30. Below is a link to our Reopening Plan that will serve as a baseline, allowing us to increase or decrease the level of mitigation strategies necessary in response to key metrics.
Please note that the Virginia State Public Health Commissioner issued an Order of Public Health Emergency on Thursday, August 12, 2021, applicable to all K-12 public and private schools in the state. For this reason, the Reopening Plan for the 2021-2022 academic year at All Saints Catholic School has been revised to include the following:
Face Masks – In accordance with the State Public Health Commissioner’s Order, effective August 12, 2021, all individuals aged two and older are required to wear masks when indoors at All Saints Catholic School, as recommended and described by the CDC. The indoor mask requirement applies to all students, employees and visitors, regardless of vaccination status. Exceptions to the Order include: Individuals who are eating or drinking; exercising; or playing a musical instrument (e.g. wind or brass instrument) so long as at least six feet of physical distance can be maintained from other persons.
The mask requirement shall remain in effect until the CDC guidelines for K-12 schools change, unless the Order is sooner amended or rescinded.
All Saints Band Calendar and Information for 2021-2022

All student musicians must be registered with the Garwood Whaley Music Program to take lessons.
Lead Band Parent
This position for the 2021-2022 school year is currently open. Please contact Mr. Ward to find out more. Serving in this capacity will provide you with volunteer school hours.
Instrumental music instruction is available for your son or daughter next year at All Saints Catholic School. Classes are offered during the regular school day and Zoom classes may now be used to supplement missed days during the year. The child who learns to play an instrument learns discipline, cooperation with others, and a new way to a fuller, richer life. Playing an instrument automatically places him or her in worthwhile school activities, it gives something interesting to do, and is a pleasurable use of time.
The beginner band is comprised of the following instruments: Flute, Clarinet, Alto Sax, Trumpet, Trombone, Baritone and Drums. However, the advanced band looks to spread out instrumentation with bass clarinet, tenor sax, and tuba, and these instruments may be available to students from the band. The Garwood Whaley Music Program is a local organization which has offered contracted music instruction at All Saints for many years. Our band director is Mr. Barry Ward, who is an original starting director with the program with over 40 years of experience. Also included in this program are written evaluations, performances at school and away, band music, and the opportunity to perform in both the Diocesan Band Festival and the Honor Bands.
Our overall Program was selected as the official program of instrumental music instruction for the Diocese of Arlington Schools in 1979. The program is staffed by full and part-time teachers with degrees in performance and music education. The Program is supervised by Mr. Barry Ward, who has experience working with elementary schools throughout the diocese, and a retired assistant director from Bishop Ireton High School in Alexandria. Mr. Ward’s diverse background as a performer and teachermakes him uniquely qualified to teach and supervise. He has published a number of educational articles, and composed and published music pieces through C. Alan Publications.
Our school’s band program has earned many honors, and in a sense, too many to list. Of course, the program is presently regenerating itself after this Covid year where there was both in-school and online lessons. If you are interested, we urge you to attend a registration / instrument rental meeting in September. More immediate questions can be directed to Mr. Ward at The3wardsdad@aol.com. If the interest exists, give your child all the possible support and assurance by attending the meeting at school. Enroll your child next year in our band program!
A Message from our Principal Mr. David Conroy, Jr.
As we approach the close of the school year, I wish to share with you an update regarding our plans for the 2021-2022 academic year.
I am pleased to announce that All Saints Catholic School will offer five days of in-person instruction per week for students in grades PK-8 beginning in the fall. We are confident that this change will produce academic gains for our students and, equally important, support their social and emotional growth. While we are mindful that it may be necessary to adjust our instructional plan in response to health concerns or trends that might occur in the year ahead, our traditional school schedule will serve as the baseline beginning in August.
At this time, it is difficult to determine the extent to which health mitigation strategies, such as the wearing of masks, will be necessary in the fall. State level mandates as well as guidance from our local health department and the diocese will as always inform our planning in this regard. Please know that I will continue to provide updates as changes occur and decisions are made for the 2021-2022 academic year.
Over the course of the past couple of months, the number of students participating in the 100% virtual model has been decreasing, particularly following the announcement of the increase to four days per week of in-person instruction for grades 3-8 beginning April 12. In acknowledgement of this diminishing demand and recognizing the complexity of offering concurrent instruction, we are anticipating that we will phase out the 100% virtual model at the end of this school year. Prior to making a final decision, we will be sending a survey to those families who have opted for their children to continue with virtual learning following the Easter holiday. Once we have reviewed the data and are in a position to finalize our decision, I will provide an update to the community at large.
We are so pleased to share that we have raised $32,821 through our 2021 Carrera por la Educación! We are so grateful for your generous support and participation in our largest fundraiser of the year.
The following is a list of the awards announced at yesterday’s student assembly.
I wish to thank Mrs. Burroughs and Mrs. Ballard for their wonderful leadership of the Race for Education. With a strong commitment and a creative approach, they organized a highly successful event for our community, even during this challenging year.
Congratulations to all of our students and thank you for your support of this year’s Race for Education!
In Christ,
David E. Conroy, Jr.
We are pleased to announce that Mrs. Horgan has been selected to serve as a program speaker at the National Catholic Educational Association (NCEA) Annual Conference, April 6-8, 2021. Mrs. Horgan will be co-presenting with a former colleague on two exciting topics:
We wish to congratulate Mrs. Horgan on her selection and thank her for willingness to share her knowledge on these topics with Catholic school teachers from around the country.
All Saints students from our seventh and eighth grade, under the direction of middle school religion teacher Mr. Tessier and music teacher Miss McPhilamy, worked together to create a moving presentation of the Stations of the Cross.
