Parents and guardians are able to be invited via a link to get a daily or weekly email on their students progress in each classroom. If you need help doing this or have questions, please contact Katie Piche at info@blanchetcatholicschool.com.
- Blanchet Catholic School Mobile App
Blanchet has a phone app that allows you to access everything from grades and homework to lunch menus and calendars. If you don't have the mobile app yet, this would be a great time to install it on your phone and get connected to Blanchet! Go to the Apple/Android App store and search for Blanchet Catholic School or BlanchetCavs. Just a reminder that any of the icons with the 'FACTS' hat (announcements, lunch, grades, etc) will not be available until the end of August, when schedules are ready. The mobile app is available on the Apple/Android App Store. Please make sure you download the Blanchet Catholic School app, BlanchetCavs, because it is FREE. If you download the Facts Family App it will try to charge you for access.

- St. Joseph bus stops on the Chemeketa Street side of the church after school on regular school days. It stops on the Center Street side in the mornings and after school on half days.
- St. Luke & Sacred Heart - Blanchet offers morning transportation for families who are coming from the Woodburn/Gervais area. This is only a morning transportation opportunity as there will not be an afternoon run of this route.

In order to ensure that we provide large enough vehicles for the number of students who are planning on participating in our bus routes on a daily basis, we require families to reserve a spot. You may reserve a spot by filling out our Bus Sign-up Form by August 30, 2025.

Email: attendance@blanchetcatholicschool.com
LATE/ABSENCE:
- Students are expected to be in class before the 8:35 a.m. bell to start first period.
- Students arriving after the first bell are late to school. The attendance office should be notified of any late arrivals or absences before the start of the school day.
APPOINTMENTS:

Blanchet does not coordinate or formulate carpools between members of our community. Parents are welcome to access their Facts Renweb accounts and click on the School area, where you will find the Directory. You may sort the list by zip code to find other Blanchet families who have shared their contact information if you wish to organize/coordinate your own carpools.
The Blanchet directory, and all of the personal information in it, is solely for personal use by families of current students of the school. It is not to be shared with other individuals, organizations, or businesses.
We encourage families to connect and coordinate rides to and from campus through the use of the directory. By enabling families to use the directory for that purpose, however, Blanchet in no way assumes any responsibility related to anyone’s carpool arrangements. By using the directory and participating in a carpool, you expressly agree to release, indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Blanchet, and its respective employees, directors, officers, agents, and representatives from any and all liability arising from the use of this service, including but not limited to any lawsuits, claims or causes of actions brought by you or any third party alleging any injuries or damages of any kind, whether relating to personal injury, damage to property, remedies in equity, attorneys’ fees, or court costs.

As we head back to school this Fall, we want all parents and students to be informed about the safety protocols. At Blanchet, student and staff safety is of the utmost importance, and we want you to know the safety and security measures and practices that are in place and that will be carried out daily.
Our administrative team and board members routinely discuss security expectations related to the security of all outside entrance doors and heightened alertness at the front entrance doors, where students, staff, visitors, and the public enter. Security cameras are routinely monitored at the front entrance, exterior of the school, and throughout the school building. Additionally, the school engages in emergency drills for fire drills, shelter-in-place drills, evacuations, and lockdown procedures throughout the school year.
- All faculty and staff are required to wear their appropriate photo identification at all times.
- All parents, guests, and visitors will be asked to come to the front doors and ring the buzzer on the right side of the entrance. Once you are buzzed in, you must check in at reception and be issued a visitor's pass. The pass must be returned when you leave the building.
- If a guest has an appointment with a faculty, staff, or administrator, you should check in and wait for that person to meet you in the front lobby.
- We are also updating our security measures for students. Please review these with your children so they know the new rules. We will also review them once school is back in session.
We want everyone to understand that our security measures protect the safety of our students, staff, and school buildings. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work together to ensure the safety of our students and staff.
We provide important resources and links for the Class of 2026 and their parents.

2025-26 Annual Appeal
Blanchet is a school that is blessed with an incredibly supportive community because of the difference it makes in the lives of our students and, through them, in the world. It is this support that allows us to keep our tuition among the lowest of similar schools in the Oregon.
We work tirelessly to keep our doors open wide, welcoming students of all backgrounds and financial means. Last year, we awarded tuition assistance to over fifty percent of our students. With your help, we can make a Blanchet education accessible to every family who seeks one.
Donating to the Annual Appeal helps us pay for academic programs, operational costs and teacher salaries, to name just a few items. A donation to Blanchet is an investment in our mission to prepare students for college and for life, to form individuals of faith. You can help transform the world by supporting the young people entrusted to our care.
Donations can be made any time during the school year by sending donations to the business office or through the BlanchetCAVS Family Mobile App or Parents webpage at www.blanchetcatholicschool.com/annualappeal
Donate to the Annual Appeal
2025-26 Student Raffle
The Blanchet development team works with student leadership to plan a Student Raffle each year! Students sell raffle tickets to help raise money to benefit students and student programs, such as New Student Orientation, CAV Spirit Day, Class Retreats, Grandparents Day, and much more.
We are always looking for donations for raffle items and/or families or businesses to sponsor the raffle. Please check out our online Event Sponsorship form for more details on raffle sponsorships. With gracious sponsorships, we offer wonderful raffle prizes and student incentive prizes!
