Gospel Value: Respect
Respecting the life and dignity of myself and each person in thought, word and action.
Dear Students and Parents of St. James the Greater Catholic School:
Greetings! I am looking forward to serving you as principal of St. James Catholic School. Our enrollment is increasing and we are getting things ready to start in August.
Our classrooms are getting cleaned up and our counselor’s office is relocating to the main building. With every member of the school community working together at St. James Catholic School we will continue its wonderful tradition of being a Christ-centered, academically challenging and nurturing environment for our students.
As we begin preparing for a new school year, I invite each of you to participate fully in your child’s education. Together we can accomplish great things for the students of St. James. Each of you is a member of the Parent Teacher Council (PTC) and Athletic Association (SJAA). The PTC and SJAA are looking for cheerful, hard-working volunteers to lead and organize the many activities of the school – no experience needed! Please call me at the school if you are interested in being a volunteer in any other capacity.
In addition, information and sign-up for PTC, Athletics, Cafeteria and After School Care will take place in the gym on Back to School Night on Friday, August 10th at 5:00p.m to 7:00p.m. If you’re a new family we have a new parent information meeting on Thursday, August 9th at 6:00p.m.
This school year we welcome the return of many excellent teachers and the addition of four new teachers. The first day of school will be on August 13th. Classes will begin at 8:00 a.m. and end at 3:00 p.m. The first school Mass will be on Wednesday, August 15th at 8:30 a.m. normally our mass days are on Thursday, however, Wednesday is a day of holy obligation and students will need to be in their dress uniforms. Please come and celebrate with us.
I’ve attached several forms that will be beneficial to the start of our new year! God bless you and your family.
Yours in Christ,
Mrs. Alicia Vazquez
