SJS Soccer Registration & Coaches Needed
Please note we are still accepting Soccer registration for all Saint James School children in 3rd through 8th grade.
Also, we are looking for additional coaches to help out – especially with the 3rd and 4th graders. Previous soccer experience is not needed. If interested, please contact Jon Sargent at Jon_Sargent@swissre.com.

Reminder: Yankee Candle Order Pick-Up Today 12:30-2:30pm
Just a reminder that Yankee Candle orders will be available for pick-up in the breezeway today from 12:30pm – 2:30pm. Please note the items are breakable and packaged in boxes (some quite large) so most will not be able to go home with a child on the bus. If your child goes to aftercare, you can get your order when you arrive this afternoon. If you have not already picked up your Munson’s order, that will be available in the breezeway as well.
If you have any questions please e-mail Mary Ann Creamer at margy@att.com or call/text 860.643.1448.
Thank you again for your support of Saint James School!
