Soccer Update

Thank you to everyone who expressed an interest in the SJS Spring Soccer Program.   Please note the following:

3rd Grade – Needs a few more students to sign up in order to have a team this year;

5th Grade – Needs a Coach in order to have a team this year;

7th Grade – Needs a Coach AND a few more students in order to have a team this year;

 

Please reach out to Mr. Green (cgreen@saintjamesschool.net) if you can help coach any of the three grades highlighted or if you would like to add your student to the roster for 3rd or 7th grade.  Without coaches or enough students, we cannot run a team for that grade.

1st Graders Build Nests in Stream

First Grade STREAM class fun: Students discussed the story, “Horton Hatches the Egg,” then made their own nests from the provided materials. The challenge was to keep the egg safe if an elephant (or in this case, a gallon of water disguised as an elephant) “sat” on it.

A Note From Mrs. Zorger

/in /by

Dear SJS Families,

As another great week of learning comes to a close, I wanted to take the opportunity to once again thank you for your continuous efforts to help our school community remain healthy.  I am grateful to all our families for heeding the request to be exceedingly cautious this year by keeping students at home if they show any sign of illness and quarantining students who may have had a COVID exposure through sports, family members, etc.  I know it does not come without sacrifice to be vigilant.

For those families with in-person learners (and remote learners as well), please continue to be extra cautious when it comes to your family’s well-being.  Not only do we want to keep all of our classes in the building throughout the remainder of the school year, but we want everyone in our extended school family to stay healthy and safe.

Thank you again for your support as we work through the challenges (and triumphs!) of this school year.  As always, please do not hesitate to reach out to myself or Mrs. Vignati with any questions or concerns.

Enjoy your weekend!

Bridget Zorger, Principal

Thank you to the families that signed up thus far.  Here is a reminder for other families that might be interested in participating:

As a faith-based community, Saint James School students and staff often use the power of prayer to support one another.   To broaden the outreach of prayers and build up our support for each other here at SJS, we wish to invite your family to participate in a new program we are launching called Family Prayer Buddies.  With this program, SJS families will be paired together and commit to praying for each other every day.  Please complete the form below if you are interested in participating.  You have the option to choose how much of your own family’s information you would like to share with your prayer buddy family (see form).
