Happy Catholic Schools Week! Thank you to all who attended open house, it was a great day! Here are some updates!
1. Annual Fund: LAST WEEK for MATCHED DONATION
In honor of the New Year and Catholic Schools' Week at the end of January, a generous donor has committed to matching ALL donations made this month up to $5000! WOW! So, if you're considering making a contribution, please do it NOW to take advantage of doubling your tax-deductible donation. No amount is too small or too great and all monies support the students of St. James Academy. Thank you for your support. DONATE HERE.
2. Baby Shower
Along with grandparents day, we will be celebrating our annual baby shower for women and babies in need. 8th grade will be helping Birth Choice. Please see the list (here) for the items that are requested. Please bring all items UNWRAPPED.
3. "LIKE" - for EXTRA CREDIT
We invite all the junior high students and their families to attend the film screening of "Like", which explores the effect of social media in our lives. I will be attending. If SJA 8th graders attend, they will receive extra credit. RSVP is required at FusionSolanaBeach.com - click on news & events!
