What a Fantastic Month!
Dear SJS Families,
We have had a fantastic fun filled October from Walking in the footsteps of Jesus to Trunk or Treat our students and families have celebrated together. Thank you to Parents Club for putting on a terrific Trunk or Treat, and for our Krispy Kreme Donut Fundraiser. November brings a change of time, parent conferences, and Thanksgiving break. We are blessed to have such a wonderful SJS school family. Thank you for supporting our school.
