Wireless Mouse Issue
/in Uncategorized /by Saint James SchoolWe are finding that many students are attempting to use a wireless mouse with their Chromebook while at school. Unfortunately, with so many students using this wireless accessory – often of the same brand – while in close proximity, these devices are not working correctly. If your student wishes to use a mouse with their Chromebook while at school, please note that you will need to find a mouse with a cord that plugs directly into the student’s computer.
Instrumental Music
/in Uncategorized /by Saint James SchoolPlease note that intermediate and advanced band students WILL have practice tomorrow even though it is a shortened day. These students should bring their CHRISTMAS music from last year to school tomorrow.

Chromebook Cases
/in Uncategorized /by Saint James SchoolSchool-issued Chromebook Cases are being distributed to students in 3rd – 8th grade today. For remote learners, the cases will be included with materials being picked up by parents this afternoon. Please make sure your student uses this new case in place of what they were previously using (this is required for insurance purposes) and note that the case is designed remain on the Chromebook at all times to help protect the device. The carrying strap can be found in the front zipper pocket.
Sweater Weather Reminder
/in Uncategorized /by Saint James SchoolWith the weather getting chillier, we wanted to remind parents that students may wish to have the SJS uniform V-Neck Sweater or SJS uniform Cardigan on hand to wear at school (these are the only acceptable options to be worn in the classroom on non-gym days). Teachers are leaving windows cracked to aid in the circulation of fresh air within the classroom.
Likewise, on Gym days if your student is not warm enough in just their gym t-shirt, students may wear a plain navy sweatshirt (with or without the SJS logo) or an SJS Spiritwear sweatshirt.
If you would like to visit the Uniform Closet, you may do so before school hours or after school hours.
