Tardy Arrivals & Parking
/in Uncategorized /by Saint James SchoolMrs. Kanute would like to remind parents that students will begin receiving detentions for unexcused tardy arrivals beginning this coming Monday. Please refer to the January Saber Stories article from Mrs. Kanute regarding this issue. If your child is late to school (i.e. second bell has run, the breezeway door has closed), you must come in with them to the main office to sign them in, regardless of their grade.
Also, please remember to adhere to the No Parking Signs in front of the school and across the street from the school. Parents are still parking in marked no-parking zones in the morning and afternoon, creating a safety issue that impacts other SJS parents and children.
