PARENT INFORMATION

The mission of Ursuline Academy is the total development of the individual student through spiritual formation, intellectual growth, service to others and the building of community. Parents play an important role in achieving these goals. Here are a few tips on how to stay in touch and get involved at UA.

General Information

Main Office: 314-984-2800

Office hours on school days are 7:30am until 4pm during the academic year. When offices are closed, a recorded message with daily information can be heard by dialing 314-984-2800.
Emergencies at home might require a student's immediate release from her classes. In such an instance, a parent or other adult relative should contact the school. In the event of the death of a any member of a student's family, please notify the school office. Serious illness might also be reported.
Change of address, phone number or other information about a student or her family should be reported promptly to the school office.
Guests and visitors must sign in at the main office and obtain a nametag which must be displayed at all times.
Gifts of balloons, flowers, etc. for students are not to be sent to school.

Attendance Reminder:
The easiest way to communicate attendance information is to send the details in an email to attendance@ursulinestl.org. You can also call the main office at (314) 984-2800, then follow the prompt to leave an attendance message. The attendance email and voicemail are checked throughout the day from 7:30 a.m. - 3:00 p.m. You can report the following situations using the attendance email or voicemail:

Reporting an absence for any reason
Scheduling or reporting an early dismissal or appointment
Reporting an absence for a college visit (College visits must be reported to the main office like any other absence, even though your daughter has completed a college visit form for her teachers.)

Though we value personal communication, it is not necessary to speak to our main office receptionist personally in these situations. In fact, during the Main Office busyness in the morning, it is easier for her to work from emails and voicemails when documenting attendance information in Infinite Campus.

Billing/Finance: 314-984-2820
