Congratulations Varsity Girls Basketball

Congratulations to the Saint James Varsity Girls Basketball team for earning a spot in the state tournament by defeating Saint Timothy’s of West Hartford last night by a score of 21-6.  Saint James also advances to the league semifinals.  That game will be played this Saturday at 11am vs. Saint Paul’s (game will be played at Saint Brigid in West Hartford).  Way to go Sabers!

Gala Basket Items Due Tomorrow

LAST CALL:  We are still in need of items for the SJS Class Baskets so we have extended the deadline to this Thursday, February 25th.  Baskets will be arranged and wrapped on Monday, February 29th after school.

A dress down day will be held in early March for students who bring in an item for the basket.

These baskets bring in thousands of dollars for our school and are important to the success of the Gala.  We hope everyone will support our SJS parent volunteers in this important initiative.

Each student should have received a note from their child(ren)’s room mother(s) detailing the basket theme and items needed.  Please coordinate with the room mother to make sure the item is still needed prior to purchasing.  As an alternative, cash can be sent in (in a clearly marked envelope) that the room mother can use to purchase items needed for the basket.  If you have yet to send in an item, here is a list of the themes for each class.  If you have any questions at all, they can be directed to the room mom for your child’s class or Robin Toomey at (860) 810-0079.

As always, we thank you for your support!
