We are excited to announce that Mrs. Nunes will be hosting another session of the Crazy 8s after school math club – this time for students in grades 1 & 2.  Crazy 8s Math Club is this is not your average math club – there will be fun hands on activities and weekly themes include Neon Geometry, Toilet Paper Olympics, Funny Money, and Spy Training.  The club will be held on Wednesdays after school (until 3:15pm) and will run for 8 weeks starting on 3/27.  Space is limited to 16 spots.  Please use the link below to sign your student up if they would like to participate.  Activity fee is $25.  If your student is one of the first 16 spots, please send payment to the SJS main office by Tuesday 3/5.  Make sure to note which student you are paying for and put Crazy 8s Club on the envelope.  Checks can be made out to Saint James School.

Thank you to all the families that completed the returning family registration process for the upcoming school year.  If you have not had an opportunity to finish the steps in the re-enrollment portal yet and your child/ren will be returning to SJS for Fall 2024, we ask that you do that over the weekend so we may plan accordingly (reach out to Amy Guenther with any questions).

We will be starting new student admissions screenings, visits, and registration next week. If you know of any families that are interested in learning more about Saint James School for Fall 2024, please have them reach out to Amy Guenther.
