Last Call: Teacher Appreciation Collection

Saint James School HSA is organizing a special luncheon for our awesome faculty and staff on May 6th, which falls during Teacher Appreciation Week.  We always look forward to this opportunity to show gratitude to the teachers, administrators, and staff for all they do for our children!

This year we are asking for a donation of $5.00 per family (or any amount you are comfortable giving).  The donations will be used to cover a variety of special things for our teachers and staff to enjoy at their luncheon on Tuesday, May 7th and throughout teacher appreciation week.

Please send your donation (cash or check) in an envelope labeled OFFICE, Attn: Patricia McCarthy by Thursday, May 1st.

Thank you for helping us make the day special for all the teachers and staff who take such good care of our children each and every day!

Cancelled: Digital Safety Parent Workshop

Thank you to our parents/guardians who signed up to attend the digital safety parent workshop tomorrow evening. Unfortunately, as of this morning, the RSVP list indicated a lighter than anticipated turnout so we have opted to cancel the event and try again in the Fall when schedules may not be quite so busy.
