IOWA Testing Concludes Tomorrow

/in /by

As a reminder, IOWA testing for students in Grades 3-7 will conclude tomorrow (Friday) morning.

Testing begins immediately after announcements and prayers so on-time arrival is of upmost importance.  If a student arrives after testing begins, the student will have to wait in the office until testing concludes so they do not disturb the other students.

2021 Annual Fund Campaign Launched

/in /by

This week you will be receiving a letter from Mrs. Zorger (along with the Spring SJS Community Newsletter) kicking off our 2021 Annual Fund Campaign.

Donations to our Annual Fund Campaign have been instrumental in supporting the ongoing capital improvement projects at the school.  Annual Fund dollars, along with several generous bequests and grants, have helped us keep our school facilities in great condition with new windows, roofs and, in 2020, COVID-Safety enhancements such as touch-less faucets and toilets in all bathrooms.

This year, Annual Fund donations will go towards further enriching the faith-filled educational experience we are providing to students as we look to transform our school’s former technology center into an exciting, next-generation Innovation Lab at the end of the upcoming school year. In this advanced learning hub, students will become immersed in analysis, discovery, problem solving, and creativity through multidisciplinary learning, hands-on exploration, and new technology applications.

For additional details or to donate online, please visit saintjamesschool.net/annualfund

We gratefully thank you for your consideration of supporting this important initiative.
