Returning Student Registrations Due This Friday

/in /by

Thank you to all the families who have already completed the enrollment process for Fall 2025.  A quick reminder that all returning student registrations must be completed by the end of day on Friday, February 21st.  After that time, we will begin filling open spots with new students/families wishing to join us next year.

If you did not receive the Returning Family Registration email or need a new copy, please reach out to Stephanie Holmes at Admissions@SaintTeresaCatholic.org.  You can also go into your FACTS Family Portal and follow the links on the right side under Apply/Enroll, then select Enrollment/Reenrollment.

If you have any issues with registering your returning student for Fall 2025, please reach out to us before Friday.  Applications for siblings looking to join SJS in the Fall must also be completed by 2/21 for planning purposes.

Thank you!

Other reminders:

*Families must reapply for Grant & Aid each year.  Once your registration for Fall 2025 is complete, if you would like to apply for tuition assistance, please use THIS LINK.

*The 2025-2026 Parish Affiliation Form should NOT hold up your registration.  The form may be submitted at a later date, but must be received by June 30, 2025.  As a reminder, parishioners of St. Teresa of Calcutta Parish may send their form to the SJS Main Office without the Pastor’s signature and we will submit it to the parish office for you.  Please remember you must submit a new form to SJS each year to receive the Catholic tuition rate.

SJS Soccer Registration

It’s time to sign up for the SJS 2025 Soccer Season!  Students in grades 3 – 8 are eligible to participate and no previous soccer experience is required.

If your child is interested in playing soccer for SJS this year, please complete the form on page 2 and submit it with the appropriate activity fee to the SJS main office by Wednesday, March 5th.  After that time, we cannot guarantee a spot on a team.

Saint James School 2025 Soccer Sign Up Info

Parent volunteers are needed to coach and assist with the teams (no experience needed).  We cannot run this program without your help!  If you have any questions about coaching or are able to help, please contact Mr. Green at cgreen@saintjamesschool.net.

Please note that students will need the 2024-2025 Athletics Health Permission Form completed and signed by their doctor in order to participate.**  If we already have this on file from another sport (basketball, cheer, or cross country) you do NOT need to submit a new copy.

**If you experience a delay in receiving the athletics health form from the pediatrician by the deadline, please submit the Soccer sign-up form and payment by March 5th, even if the health form is not yet complete.  The health form can be submitted later.

Please make checks payable to Saint Teresa of Calcutta Parish and note SJS Soccer in the memo field.
