The Bishop is coming to Saint James next Wednesday 10/28. Students are expected to stay at school until they are dismissed from the church between 3:20 and 3:30. This is a very special opportunity for our school! Parents are welcomed and encouraged to join us.
Unity Day- today Saint James celebrates "Unity Day" by wearing orange and spreading the message of acceptance, inclusion, and kindness. This day is being celebrated by schools all over the country today.
Book Reports are expected to be completed by Friday. Your child will print their report at school but may be required to finish their "cover page" at home if it is not finished in class.
Music Test- students will be taking a music test on chorus lyrics of their Christmas Pageant song this Friday with Mrs. Oldham. They each have a copy of the lyrics and are expected to be able to write them.
