Reminder: 12:05 Dismissal Today

As a reminder, today (Wednesday, 1/27) is a 12:05pm dismissal day (aftercare will be in session).  Due to an event being held in the Gym immediately following dismissal on Wednesday, we will be dismissing students from the parking lot between the school and the pre-kindergarten building instead of in the gym.  This is for Wednesday, 1/27 only.

Volunteers Still Needed for Saturday

This Saturday, Jan 23rd, Saint James will be hosting JV basketball games all day long at our school.  As other schools have done when they host, we are going to have a concession stand to sell drinks and snacks for the spectators as well as the players.

Parents are asked to consider helping run the concession stand for a 1-2 hr commitment between the hours of 9am-6pm (2 parents per time slot).  We are looking for Basketball parents that don’t have other volunteer assignments or any other SJS parents who are willing to help out our school.  A few spots are still open…Please contact Beverly-Anne Cattanach at beverly.fiumara@snet.net if you can help.  Please leave the best contact number too in case she needs to reach you.

Also, we still need a scoreboard operator and a scorebook keeper for the 3:00-4:00 time slot.  There are many Girls/Boys JV Basketball parents who are not currently listed with an assignment.  You can see what is still needed HERE or contact Tara Moriarty at tarabelle74@gmail.com.

Thank you so much to everyone who has volunteered to help in either capacity…particularly those who have signed up for multiple times.  It is greatly appreciated!

Music Teacher

Mrs. Kanute wishes to inform parents that our Music Teacher, Mrs. Bonn, has decided to leave Saint James School to pursue another opportunity.  We are excited to announce that Mrs. Pamela Archangeli – who subbed for us in music earlier in the year – will be joining Saint James School as our music teacher for the remainder of the school year.
