Uniform Closet Reminder

/in /by

If your child has outgrown their SJS uniform items, please remember to donate them to our school’s Uniform Closet!  Uniform items in good condition may be brought to the main office at anytime throughout the school year and during the summer.

Also, as a reminder, parents wishing to look through items in the uniform closet over the summer should call the SJS main office in advance of stopping by to make sure someone is available to let you in (summer hours for the main office will be 9am – 12pm most days).

Reminder: 2023 Annual Fund Campaign

/in /by

Last week your student should have brought home a letter from Mrs. Zorger (along with the Spring SJS Community Newsletter) kicking off our 2023 Annual Fund Campaign.

Donations to our Annual Fund Campaign have been instrumental in supporting important projects at our school that simply cannot be covered by tuition/standard fundraising.  Annual Fund dollars, along with several generous bequests and grants, have helped us keep our school facilities in great condition with new windows, roofs and recently provided the funding for our new STREAM Innovation Lab.

This year, Annual Fund donations will once again be used to further enrich the faith-filled educational experience provided to our students, support our talented faculty, and respond to unforeseen needs and opportunities that may arise.  Every gift makes a difference!

For additional details or to donate online, please visit saintjamesschool.net/annualfund

We gratefully thank you for your consideration of supporting this important initiative at our school.

Attention Gr. 6 Parents

As a reminder, state law requires that all students entering 7th grade have an updated State of CT Health Form on file (showing a physical within the last year) BEFORE the first day of 7th grade.  A final letter was sent home today from the school nurse for students that still need to provide this form (if your child has a summer physical appointment, please call or email Mrs. Pennington to let her know IF you have not already done so).
