Christ is Risen Poster Contest

Saint James School and the Knights of Columbus Council invite students to participate in this year’s “Christ is Risen” poster contest.

The contest is intended to make students think about the importance of the resurrection, to provide an opportunity for families to discuss the resurrection, and to provide students an opportunity through their artwork to express what they envision when they hear, “Christ is Risen.”

The link below has poster/student rules and the entry form (copies are also available in the SJS main office if needed).  We are excited to see what amazing artwork our students submit this year!

Christ Is Risen Contest Rules & Entry Form

Completed posters and copies of the above entry form (signed by both student and parent) must be in the SJS main office by Thursday, April 3rd.
