Mrs. Vignati Retirement Announcement

Please join us in congratulating our school nurse, Mrs. Janis Vignati, who has announced that she will be retiring in June after 16 years of taking care of students (and sometimes even the staff) at Saint James School.  These past few years have certainly challenged health care workers in all facets of employment, but Mrs. Vignati continued to be unwavering in her dedication to our school community even during the most stressful of times.  Mrs. Vignati wanted to share that she is grateful for all the wonderful families and students that she has met during her tenure with SJS and has thoroughly enjoyed working alongside Saint James School’s fantastic teaching staff and administration.  We wish Mrs. Vignati all the best in this next chapter!
