Come Cheer on the Sabers!
Tonight, (2/12), all families and friends are invited join us at East Catholic High School as the SJS JV Boys basketball team team plays the JV Boys team from Saint Bridget School. That game starts at 6:00pm. At 7:15pm, our Varsity Boys Blue team will play the Saint Bridget School Varsity boys. As a reminder, the entrance for the gym at ECHS is back behind the building.
We hope to see you there!

Share Your Voice: Educational Choice for Children Act
Lawmakers in 36 states have enacted various forms of assistance for tuition-paying families to help families enroll their children in the most appropriate elementary or secondary school. Connecticut is not one of those states.
In the coming weeks, however, Congress will be in the unique position to help tuition-paying families in all states – including here in Connecticut- through the Educational Choice for Children Act (ECCA).
We need your help in urging Congress to pass this unique opportunity. Please take a moment to encourage your legislators to support this initiative by sending them the message that appears on the right side of THIS PAGE.
Thank you!
Parish Affiliation Form Reminder
With returning student registration now under way, we wanted to remind families that a NEW Parish Affiliation Form must be completed each year to qualify for the Catholic Tuition Rate. The 2025-2026 Parish Affiliation Form should NOT hold up your registration (which is due by 2/21/25) but must be received no later than June 30, 2025.
For parishioners of our 4 Manchester Catholic Churches, please remember that the parish name should be listed as “Saint Teresa of Calcutta” and the parish address is “80 Main Street, Manchester.” These forms may be sent directly to our school office for the required signature. All other parishes, please obtain your pastor’s signature before submitting to SJS. Please reach out with any questions.
Online Presentation by Father Matt
We hope you will join us online this evening for an informative presentation about Blessed Carlo Acutis given by Father Matt! As a reminder, there is also still time to view the Exhibit of Eucharistic Miracles (click HERE for the flyer from our parish).
Ski Club Tomorrow
Tomorrow, Friday, February 7th, is our 3rd ski & snowboard club trip. GYM DOORS will open at 7:25am for parents/students to begin dropping equipment and snow gear off.
Please do not unload skis/boards in the morning arrival “drop and go” area unless you are there right at 7:25am.
Please be sure your child has their RDIF card with them. If the card was misplaced, a new one can be purchased at the mountain for $5.00.
