Toy Drive Thank You & Award
A huge Thank You to all the families who donated toys to our Christmas toy drive this year! There were so many wonderful donations – we know that many children will be smiling on Christmas morning because of your generosity.
We are pleased to announce that Saint James School was honored by one of the charities we support – Community Partners in Action – for the many years that the school has collected gifts for their annual Toy Drive and Christmas Party for the children of their clients. Mrs. Kanute recently attended a special breakfast to receive the award on behalf of the school.
