Gospel Value: Kindness
Respecting the life and dignity of myself and each person in thought, word and action.
Dear Star Families and Friends,
As we quickly move past our first full week of school, I can't tell you how pleased I am with the start of the 2019-20 school year at St. James Catholic School. We are off to a great start! I am so excited to be able to start this journey with our students, families and faculty.
Any time you wish to talk, do not hesitate to call or write me an e-mail. If you prefer to visit in person just make that call and set up an appointment with our secretary. I want to commend our entire staff for their hard work, preparation and commitment to kicking off the new school year with great success.
I would also like to say thank you to all of our families for knowing where to drop off and pick up your students while being sensitive to our community partners in the area. Below are important pieces of information for you as well as opportunities for you to get involved here at St. James.
Blessings,
Alicia Vazquez
