The HSA is selling Spirit Sticks again this year.  Spirit Sticks are a fun way for students to express themselves and decorate their backpacks.  Start with the Saint James School/Sabers Key Ring (front and back shown below):  The Key Rings are $5 each and with this purchase you get your first spirit stick FREE.  Then, purchase additional spirit sticks for $1/each to enhance your collection.

Please see the image below showing the sticks that are currently available (click picture to enlarge).

To purchase spirit sticks (and/or the SJS key chain), please fill out the Spirit Sticks Order Form and return it with EXACT CASH ONLY through your child’s school folder in an envelope marked “Spirit Stick Order, For Kerry Caldwell, c/o Taylor.”  Orders will be distributed to the teachers and sent home with your child.  If you have any questions, please contact SJS parent volunteer Kerry Caldwell at kmcaldwell@gmail.com.

Last week you should have received home in your child’s school folder the information form for Grandparents’ & Special Persons’ day, coming up on October 20th.  The permission slip/information notice is due back to the school by this Friday, October 7th.  If you need a new copy of the form, it can be downloaded HERE.

The 2016-2017 United Way Community Workforce Campaign will be kicking off at many local companies over the next few weeks. Please remember you can donate to Saint James School through the United Way by utilizing our code – AG0681-1 or going to the section “Write In/Other” and writing in “Saint James School, Manchester, CT.” Please share this information with relatives and friends who may be willing to support our school as well.  As always, we thank you for your consideration and support of Saint James School!

A huge Thank You to all our SJS families and friends who visited Lucky Taco yesterday for the SJS Dine-Out.  The turnout was exceptional and raised over $400.00 for Saint James School!
