This Saturday evening, February 8th, join fellow SJS students and parents as the University of Hartford takes on the University of Vermont (at UHart) at 7:00pm.  Both teams are tied for first in the American East conference (division 1) so it should be a great game!  All SJS kids will be free and parent tickets are only $5.

RSVP is required, please use THIS FORM to RSVP your family.

Any questions, please reach out to parent volunteer coordinator Brian Nyberg at bnyberg1@cox.net.

The annual Saint James School Soirée & Auction is our largest fundraiser of the year and a great adults-only event to celebrate the awesome community we share while raising money for our school!  The event will take place on Saturday, March 28th from 7:00pm – 11:30pm, in what we are calling The Saber’s Den (our school’s gymnasium, transformed for the event).  This year’s theme will be 60’s Beach Party!  Attendees are welcome to come in their favorite 60’s Beach Party attire (but please know that beach attire is not required to attend).

In keeping with tradition, attendees of the Soirée will have the option to participate in the live and/or silent auctions and bid on items from class baskets.  Some of the auction items will include:

*Priority seating at 8th Grade Graduation

*Priority seating at the Spring 2020 Concert (featuring our choir, bands, and 3rd graders on recorder)

*Ride to school in a fire truck

*4 tickets to a Red Sox game at Fenway (with on field batting practice access)

*Wine class for 20 from Total Wine & More

…with all proceeds benefiting Saint James School. There will be delicious food from Highland Park Market, a cash bar from Lucky Taco, a hula hoop contest, and – of course – A WHOLE LOT of fun!

Invitations and RSVP information will be sent home with students shortly.

If you would like to volunteer at the event, donate an auction item, or help us solicit donations, please contact parent volunteer chair Erin Daley at erindaley6416@gmail.com.   Information on sponsorships can be found here:  2020 Soiree Sponsorship Form

The 2020 Soirée artwork was beautifully designed by Alessandra and Miles Maull (who won this honor at last year’s event).

 

On Monday all SJS families with a child in our Pre-K3 through grade 7 classes should have received a special email regarding registration for the 2020-2021 school year.
