The holiday boutique is in full swing! Come on down anytime before 4pm to get some great finds from friends and family of St. James’! Proceeds support the Class of 2019.
We hope you can join us for the St. James’ Holiday Boutique this Thursday featuring a multitude of excellent vendors!
This morning in science class our second graders honed their observational skills on some flatworms and locusts!
Exquisite violinist Chan Ho Yun stopped by the art room today for a fun collaborative project with our third graders studying the relationship between music and visual art.
One of our core beliefs here at St. James’ is that everything we teach and do is part of our curriculum; your child’s mind is constantly absorbing whatever it is exposed to. In that spirit, if you are going to vote tomorrow and are able to take your student with you, we will grant an excused tardy for any student arriving late who went to watch their parent/guardian vote. There’s no lesson they might miss that is more important than seeing a quintessential example of democracy in action!
Happy Voting!

Felicidades to Profesora Flores (@sjsspanish) for a magnificent Dia de Los Muertos celebration yesterday at our Hispanic Heritage Assembly! We hope you’ll come by campus for the Coco screening at 4:30pm today, and be sure to check out the altar in the courtyard.
On Friday, October 12, our first group of volunteers from the Class of 2019 spent a couple of hours helping out at the St. James' Soup Kitchen. Held every Friday in Parish Hall, the Soup Kitchen feeds around 100 hungry people every week. Our volunteers, Tiffany, Bennett, Lily, and Lauren helped with set-up and then joined other volunteers on the serving line. We are proud of the fantastic job our 6th graders did, as they served with humility while treating our guests with dignity and a whole lot of heart. Over the course of the year, other 6th graders will volunteer their time to help in this ministry. We are very proud to have the opportunity to partner with our parish and their food ministries. If you would like more information, please contact Service Learning Program Coordinator Rob Krueger at rkrueger@sjsla.org.
