All students, faculty, parents, and other guests of our students are invited to join us tomorrow, Thursday March 24th, at 7:30am in Ms. O’s middle school classroom for a special Prayer Service. Please take this time and/or encourage your child(ren) to join us in prayers for family, friends, peace, and other special intentions.
We look forward to seeing you and/or your child(ren) there.
Please update your calendars. After factoring in the few snow days we have had this year, the projected last day of school is now June 10th, which will be a half day. We will have a FULL day of school on June 9th. The first day of school for the 2016-2017 school year will be September 1st. The calendar of the SJS website has been updated to reflect these changes.

Yesterday, Saint James School students celebrated the patron saint of Ireland – St. Patrick – with limericks, poems, songs, Irish step dancing, and bagpipe performances. Most importantly, students continued to learn more about who St. Patrick was and his role in helping establish the Catholic church in Ireland.
