HELP YOUR CHILD'S EDUCATION!
Yesterday, each child in Pre­K Four through Eighth Grade received an Individual Pupil
Request for Loan of Textbooks Form. Please SIGN and DATE the form and have your
child/children return it IMMEDIATELY to their homeroom teacher. It is very important for
you to complete and return these forms as it allows Saint James School to purchase
textbooks through our state grant. This allocation is based on our CURRENT
enrollment; therefore each and every child MUST return their form even if they are not
returning for the next school year. SUMMER UNIFORM
Starting Wednesday, April 22nd, students will be allowed to wear their summer uniform.
Parents please check the weather daily to ensure that your child is wearing the
appropriate clothing.
Thank you for your support and cooperation.
Night Under the Stars 25th Anniversary Committee
Dear SJS Parents,
Over the weekend the Night Under the Stars committee sent out a survey looking for your
feedback on this very important fund raising event. If you have not done so as of yet
please take the time to answer the survey. The committee is anxious to hear feedback
from our school families as the survey will end on Friday, April 25th.
Thank you for your anticipated cooperation!
1A Celebrates National Poetry Month
In celebration of National Poetry Month, Mrs. Leslieann Cialdella, who teaches creative
writing at Rutgers, once again visited 1A to talk about noises and the sounds poems
make. After listening to a few noises (jingling of keys, a bang on a desk), we tried to figure
out what these noises sounded like. "Christmas bells on Santa's sleigh!" "A mad knock a
the door!" Then we wrote poems in our writing journals about the sounds in our kitchens
at home: "The dishwasher swishes" "I drop the fork ­­ ting­a­ling." The students enjoyed
making noise poems.
