Parent Communication Guidelines

     At Cardinal Mooney Catholic High School, we believe that communication is necessary to ensure the success of our school community. Therefore, the goal is to provide our parents/guardians and students with a clear communication protocol should you have questions or concerns. 

 

     If a concern arises, the first step should always be for the student to communicate directly with the person in charge of the class, team, or program. If step one does not resolve the issue or clarify the rationale, please follow the steps provided. In most cases, the easiest way to communicate is via e-mail, then a phone call.
