Merry Christmas to All
From our SJS Family to Yours,
We wish you blessings and joy during this Christmas Season and all through the year.
Morning Carpool
Please help us to keep the line moving in the morning by following the teachers' hand signals. This allows us to move as many cars as possible into the unloading areas. Thank you for your help with this.
Season of Giving
This is the time of year that we recognize those who serve us and we are asking each family for a small donation that will allow us to recognize Father McDuffie and Deacon Larry for their constant support of our school family. They celebrate Mass for the children and always have an excellent message. Fr. McDuffie oversees the school and supports our efforts to provide a faith filled experience for the students. Deacon Larry assists us with events such as the religion fair, Stations of the Cross, and the May crowning. Please send all donations in an envelope marked:
