Important Reminders
From the Nurse
Parents/guardians need to make arrangements to pick up all student medications from the nurse prior to the last day of school. Students cannot bring medicines home themselves.
If your child has medication at school, please reach out to the Saint James School nurse, Mrs. Pennington, to schedule a pick-up time.
Also, medication authorization forms need to be renewed annually for each school year. It is the parent’s responsibility to bring medication and a completed and signed medication authorization form to the nurse when we return to school in late August. The most recent medication authorization form can be found on the school website under Forms/Docs.
Also, all students that will be entering Pre-K3, Pre-K4, Kindergarten, and 7th grade next year must have an updated health form – signed by the child’s pediatrician – on file before the 1st day of school. Please reach out to Mrs. Pennington if you are unsure if your child is in compliance for Fall 2024.
Parish Affiliation Forms
Families with a student in grades K-8 looking to receive the “Catholic Parishioner” tuition rate (discount) for the upcoming school year must submit a current 2024-2025 Parish Affiliation Form by June 30th. This form must be completed by the pastor and resubmitted to the school for each new year. If you have questions on a submitted parish affiliation form or your tuition for next year, please reach out to out tuition manager (Denise Mayo) at dmayo@saintjamesschool.net or option 8 on the phone menu.
School Bus Transportation (K-8, Manchester residents)
If your student will be using school bus transportation for the upcoming school year, please complete our Bus Form by Friday, June 7th. Details and a link to the online form can be found HERE (<—- click link). Students must be re-registered for the bus for each year they will use it.
*Lunch Account Balances*
We currently have a number of SJS students with negative lunch account balances. Please check your student’s account balance and bring that up to date. Any positive balance will be carried over to the next school year, negative balances will be charged to the family’s FACTS account.
Library Books Due June 3rd
