2019 Annual Fund Kick-Off
This week you should have received a letter from Mrs. Zorger (along with the Spring SJS Community Newsletter) kicking off our 2019 Annual Fund Campaign.
Donations to our Annual Fund Campaign are instrumental in supporting the ongoing capital improvement projects at the school (these projects are not covered by tuition funds or supported by the SJS Foundation). Annual Fund dollars, along with several generous bequests and grants, have helped us afford the new, energy-efficient windows and roofs that have been installed at the school during the past past several years as well as the new roofs on the entire “big” school building.
This year, donations will help defray the cost of replacing the 50+-year-old roof on the Pre-Kindergarten building. This is the final roof on our school campus that needs to be replaced.
For additional details or to donate online, please visit saintjamesschool.net/annualfund
We gratefully thank you for your consideration of supporting this important initiative.

Tonight’s Soccer Banquet
For those soccer players that sent in a reservation for tonight’s soccer banquet:
The banquet begins at 6:00pm at Assumption Church Hall, 27 South Adams Street, Manchester.
Please note that there is a special Mass taking place from 5:00-5:45pm that evening. Please do not arrive before 5:45pm, there will not be enough parking and we do not want to disturb the Mass going on. Thank you for your help with this.
Also, we are NOT accepting any more reservations for this event – the RSVP date was last Friday, May 17.
We look forward to celebrating our soccer players tomorrow night!
