Attention Middle School Parents,

Please remind your student that the only charging cable they are to use with their Chromebook is the one given to them at the beginning of school.  Already this year we have had multiple Chromebooks stop working because their batteries were damaged using a cable that was not meant for them.

The cable provided by the school has the precise Hz needed to charge the Chromebook battery safely.  Using a higher Hz charger can cause the battery to swell and overheat; if this occurs the Chromebook is not covered under the insurance and you will be charged for any damage that needed to repair it.

Thank you for your attention to this.

As a reminder, Saint James School will have an early dismissal tomorrow, Friday, October 18th (12:05pm).  Please make sure your student knows where they are going at the end of the day as teachers will be heading offsite for professional development immediately following dismissal.

For K-8 families, please note the following:

Thursday (10/17)
All 1st – 8th Grade students must be in their regular uniform tomorrow as we will attend Mass at Saint James Church (i.e. no gym uniforms, tan shorts are fine).  Students that usually have gym on Thursdays may, however, wear their sneakers with their regular uniform.

Friday (10/18)
All K-5th Grade students must wear their regular uniform on Friday as they will be performing for Grandparents’ Day.  Any 6th – 8th grade student performing in the Band at Friday’s event must also wear their regular uniform on this day.
