Dress Down Thank You!
Thank you to all the SJS students and staff who participated in our St. Francis-inspired $1.00 Dress Down Day on Friday. Together we raised $386 to will benefit the installation of raised beds and the planting of bulbs, both of which will tie in with upcoming science lessons for our students.
Cross Country Update
Our Cross Country team had another fantastic meet yesterday against Timothy Edwards and Sage Park.
For the boys, Evan Ansaldi came in 3rd out of 75 runners, followed closely by Erik in 6th place. Bradley Bushnell and Alejandro Oyewole came in 21st and 34th to secure a 2nd place finish for the Sabers. For the girls, Maya Fisher placed 2nd out of 47 runners, followed by Sarah Christina in 6th, Sammy Creamer in 9th, and Cora Tierney in 24th.
