One-Sided Winter Parking Ban: March 4-April 1
Beginning Monday, March 4, at noon, and continuing through April 1, there is NO PARKING on the even side of St. Paul residential streets. That means no parking on the east side (church side) of Hall Ave. and no parking on the south side of Robie St. across from the church. Winifred, George and Humboldt are not affected by this because they are main arterial streets. The one-sided parking ban may be lifted by the City of St. Paul earlier than April 1 if conditions permit. Check back here or keep an ear on the news. More info here: www.stpaul.gov/1sideparking

All of our families, staff, and stakeholders know we are here for the long haul. It’s an honor to carry on St. Michael’s legacy of Catholic education.”
