Seton’s priorities remain the same during the COVID-19 pandemic. Our goals include serving our mission, remaining open to in-person instruction, and providing a quality high school experience while keeping our community safe. Everyone can support our efforts by communicating positive test results in a timely manner, identifying all potential close contacts, and staying home when they are sick or when they need to quarantine. 


Sincerely,


Victor Serna

Principal
