In keeping with tradition, Saint James School will hold several Staff Appreciation events during the week of May 29th. Hosted by the SJS HSA, this is a special way for our school community to show gratitude to the teachers, administrators, and staff for all they do for our children!
This year, to keep things simple, we are trying something new. Instead of asking for families to provide specific items, 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 throughout the week–treats, gifts, and a huge Staff Appreciation Luncheon on May 31st with tons of food and goodies.
Please send your donation (cash only please) in an envelope labeled Office, Attn: Amy Santangelo by this Friday, 5/4.
The Staff Appreciation Luncheon will be held on May 31 and we need volunteers to help out that day. Please contact Amy Santangelo (amybsantangelo@gmail.com) if you are interested in volunteering or have any raffle items to donate.
Thank you for helping us make the week so special for all the teachers and staff make our school so special!

4th Graders Research Sea Creatures
/in St. James Notices /by Saint James SchoolSaint James 4th grade students recently finished researching and writing a report on an assigned sea creature. Research was gathered using at least one book and at least one website, with students utilizing some of their science class time to conduct research on the school’s iPads. Students also designed a cover for their report during one of their weekly art classes.
For homework, 4th graders were tasked with creating a model of their animal using recyclable materials and/or craft-related items. The finished projects were presented to students in the younger grades. Below are a few pictures of students with their models and research reports, as well as them speaking to students in the younger grades (click to enlarge).
