Please join us at Saint James Church this coming Sunday, April 14th at 9:00am for our monthly SJS Children’s Mass.  Saint James students will be serving in many capacities including altar servers, readers, and gift bearers, and our choir will be singing.

A reception in the lower church will follow the mass with coffee, juice, and donuts provided.

All Saint James School families are welcome regardless of faith or home parish.  Students are encouraged to wear their Saint James School uniform (students serving in any capacity must wear their uniform).  We hope to see you there!

As a reminder, the Lenten Rice Bowls (through Catholic Relief Services) that were sent home with your child/ren at the start of Lent, are due back to the school after break.  Here was the information originally sent out regarding this collection:

LENTEN RICE BOWLS

Members of the SJS Student Council visited the classrooms to discuss the Lenten Rice Bowl program through Catholic Relief Services and hand out information.  During Lent it is our responsibility to give Alms, or raise money for charity.  Children were given the option to earn money over the next several weeks to put in their Rice Bowl or perhaps sacrifice a small portion of money they have saved.  After April Break, Student Council members will collect the bowls and tally the donations by homeroom.  Additional information regarding the Lenten Rice Bowl program is included with what is being sent home today or you can visit www.crsricebowl.org for a complete overview of this initiative.

 

As always, we appreciate any support your family is able to provide.

Each year, the graduating class leaves a gift to the school to commemorate their years at SJS.

This year, the class of 2019 is hoping to donate money to purchase an Elkay water fountain/filtered bottle filling station which will be installed in our school’s gym.  Since the cost of this gift exceeds what the parents are able to raise on their own, the school has approved for our 8th graders to sell SJS Water Bottles to help make up the difference.

Some of our 8th grade students and parents will be selling these SJS reusable water bottles for $10.00 each at afternoon pick-up on Tuesday, April 9th (please make sure you put your child’s name on it after purchasing if they will be bringing it to school).  Please note there is a limited quantity available.
