As we wind down the school year, there are numerous families showing an outstanding balance on their child(ren)’s school lunch accounts. Please take a moment to ensure your student’s lunch account is current and that you have added funds to carry them through the end of the year. Any positive balance will transfer to next year.
Manchester residents: If your rising K-8th grade child/ren will be using school bus transportation for the upcoming school year (2025-2026), please complete this form for EACH child in your family who will be riding the school bus by Friday, June 13th. All families using the bus for the 2025-2026 school year must complete this form as we need to provide an updated list to the town each year.
2025-2026 School Bus Sign Up Form
If your student will be riding the bus to/from a location (in Manchester) other than your primary residence (i.e. day care) you will need to complete a Request For Day Care Transportation form. Please indicate this in the above link and SJS will send the form to you directly with instructions.
Kindergarten and other first-time bus riders may also need to be registered through the town’s portal to prove residency. We will send that information to parents individually as appropriate. Once this step is complete, you do not need to do it again in subsequent years unless your residence changes.
Per the town’s policy, Kindergarten through Grade 2 students, MUST have an adult with them while waiting for the bus in the morning and an adult must be present to receive the student in the afternoon otherwise the student will be returned to school and sent to the SJS Aftercare Program until a parent/guardian can pick them up. (Aftercare charges will be incurred in these instances).

The Saint Bridget/Saint James School Council is seeking a few new individuals to join its ad hoc committees. These committees advise the pastor, president, and principals on key matters related to marketing, finance, buildings & grounds, and strategic planning. Committees typically meet every other month, though meetings may occur more frequently and include email communication, depending on current projects.
If you have expertise in any of the areas noted above and would like to be considered for a committee role, please complete this form https://saintteresacatholic.org/school-committee by May 30th.
Please share this message with others you know who would be a strong addition to the council (they do not have to have children in our schools). All are welcome to apply!
