From the Principal
Saturday is our annual fundraiser; Night at the Races, we hope to see you all there to support our school. This night is a TON of fun and gives us the ability to keep our school the best it can be. I've peeked at some of the basket raffles, and you definitely won't want to miss them! PLUS--I heard a rumor that Mrs. Puskas is auctioning off a choice of roommates for Washington DC this year! (kids usually are guaranteed one person they choose, but this would allow the student to select all three roommates!) Also, we have Indians Tickets, Cavs, Tickets, and a round of golf at Elyria County Club. A very special thank you to PTO for donating all the fabulous baskets. Join us for a fun night of beverages, Mardi Gras Celebration, horse races, and GREAT food!
Many blessings,
Mrs. Molly Hibler

ALL 5TH AND 7TH GRADE PARENTS!
A postural screening will soon be conducted here at St. Jude’s for all 5th and 7th-grade students. This screening helps to identify children with a curvature of the spine called scoliosis or other possible spinal problems. The purpose of this program is to recognize the problem at its earliest stages so that the need for treatment can be determined.
The procedure for screening is a simple one in which a student’s posture is inspected as he/she stands and bends forward. If a postural problem is suspected, the parent will be notified.
If your child is currently under active treatment for a postural problem, or if you object to your child being screened, please let me know as soon as possible. If you have any questions about the screening, please contact me at 440-366-1681 or email jjanuzzi@stjudejaguars.org
I plan on conducting the screening during the week of March 11th, 2019.
