Consider Donating 1st Communion Items to our Uniform Closet
Do you ever look in your child’s closet and wonder what you should do with your daughter’s old 1st communion dress and shoes or your son’s suit? Well…. We are excited to announce that we are opening up a new section of the SJS Uniform Closet for 1st communion attire and we are now accepting donations! Most of these outfits end the day still being like new, and we love the idea of sharing them!
Given the importance of this day, please be sure to carefully look over your dress before donation to ensure that it is free from stains and/or rips. Thank you all so much, we are excited to add this to our closet!
Save the Date: St. James Foundation Golf Outing
Please save the date for the 25th Annual Saint James School Foundation Golf Classic & Dinner which will be held on Wednesday, May 8th at Manchester Country Club.
The Saint James School Foundation is a privately run endowment fund providing over $100,000 each year to Saint James School in support of our financial aid program, ongoing technology upgrades, and our school’s Margin of Excellence programs. Last year, the foundation donated over $150,000 to Saint James School! Each year, the Foundation holds a golf tournament and dinner in support of their mission.
This annual event is a lot of fun with a great mixture of current SJS parents, former SJS parents, and SJS alumni. You can sign up as a foursome, a single, or just come for the dinner! Sponsorship and registration information can be found HERE.
