A HUGE Thank You to our Technology Teacher Mrs. McNamara and her classes for putting together this awesome video showing what a “Happy” place Saint James School is (please note, most of the video footage is from June of last year).
If you have not already done so, please remember to complete the following and return them to the school office on Monday via your child’s school folder:

Today you will receive home in your child(ren)’s folders our school’s Photo Permissions/Code Red Contacts Form. Please take a moment to complete this short document and return it to the school by Monday, September 8th. Every family must have this information on file with the school.
In addition, your family’s “Family Information Sheet” will also be coming home today. This shows the information listed in our school’s computer system for your family.

Please join us for the first HSA (Home & School Association) Meeting of the 2014-2015 school year tonight at 6:30pm in the Pre-Kindergarten building. The HSA – which is similar to a PTA or PTO – is open to all Saint James School parents/grandparents/guardians. Unlike many PTAs there is no fee to join and no minimum time commitment required.
At Saint James School, the HSA is comprised of volunteers who organize and support our school’s events and fundraisers. A list of the proposed events for this year – as well as detailed information about the HSA – was sent home in your child’s folder, as well as via e-mail, on Friday.
We are always looking for new ideas and suggestions on how to improve the HSA and our school events. It is a great opportunity to meet new people and help make our children’s years at Saint James the best that they can be. Tonight’s meeting will be brief and informational. If you can’t make it this time, our meetings are always open to everyone and will typically occur the first Tuesday of every month. We hope to see you there!
If you have any questions, please let us know: Diane Parsons (diane@parsonsphoto.org), Linda Carpenter (tcarpenter2005@cox.net), Darcy Donnelly (ddonnell@travelers.com).
Mrs. Kanute would like to thank everyone for helping us make the morning drop-off run smoothly this morning. Just a few reminders for parents picking up their child(ren) at the end of the day (Saint James Church parking lot):
Please know that your child’s safety is our number one concern. We thank you sincerely for your support with the above items.
Starting on Tuesday, students will enter the school in the morning through the breezeway door. As a reminder for new parents, beginning Tuesday, you may pull up in front of the breezeway and drop your student off OR park in the church parking lot and walk them up (please do NOT park in front of the breezeway on Tuesday morning). If you are dropping in front of the breezeway, your child needs to be ready with their backpack when you pull up. Parents are asked to not exit their car if using drop-off. Mrs. Kanute will be out there to help direct students where to go. Students not using the before-care program may arrive between 7:30am and 7:50am. Please leave plenty of time to account for morning traffic.
Have a wonderful holiday weekend – we look forward to seeing everyone back on Tuesday morning!
