We are excited to announce that Phase 1 of the Window Replacement Project is currently underway at SJS! Among the many benefits of these much-needed new windows will be a significant improvement in the energy efficiency of the impacted classrooms. A huge Thank You to all the SJS parents, grandparents, alumni, Saint James Church parishioners, and many wonderful friends of the school who have given their support to this important initiative during the past several years.  We would also like to specifically recognize sizable donations from our great friends at Highland Park Market and CL&P (through the Connecticut Neighborhood Assistance Tax Credit Program) that helped us close the gap on our funding needs for this project.

Has you driven by the school lately?  The scaffolding is up as the preparation work has begun for the first phase of the Window Replacement Project (see picture).  Please note, if you have not already done so, there is still time to make a donation to the 2013 Annual Fund in support of this project.   We are currently at 39% of our goal for this year.  If you have already made a donation, thank you!
