Numerous families have requested that the school publish a Family Directory to help parents and students communicate with each other. The office had previously sent out forms asking parents what information (if any) they wanted to include in this directory. We are currently pulling the information together to make our family directory.
We would also like to give our Saint James School parents who own their own business (or have a home-based business) an opportunity to advertise in our directory. This will give other Saint James parents an easy place to consult first when they are in need of goods or services.
The charge to advertise in the directory will be $20 and all ads will be business card size. The revenue from advertising will go directly to SJS to help defray costs associated with the directory. If you wish to place an ad, please send an electronic copy of the ad to Amy Guenther at aguenther@saintjamesschool.net and a hard copy of the ad (along with $20 check made out to Saint James School) to attention Amy Guenther, Saint James School Office. All ads are due in by Friday, November 22nd.
If you have any questions, please contact Amy at aguenther@saintjamesschool.net.
