Food Drive THANK YOU!

Thank you to our SJS families for their generosity with our Thanksgiving Food Drive for MACC Charities!

Grade 3 Reading Café

This morning, third grade students were surprised (and excited!) find their classrooms transformed into “Reading Cafés” – each with a roaring fireplace (on the viewboard), decorated tables, and their teacher dressed as a maître d’. This special lesson was to teach the 3rd graders about different genres of books and to encourage them to broaden their reading horizons.
