Three Days, and Counting!

We have been busy during these last few weeks of summer preparing for our favorite time of year- the first day of school! Our maintenance and custodial staff has been working tirelessly making our campus as beautiful, safe, and functional as possible. We’ve kept especially close attention to detail with deep cleaning and sanitation efforts in the classroom and common areas. The crews have also been sprucing up our landscaping and green spaces. Faculty members have been putting the finishing touches on their classrooms and laboratories. We are so excited to welcome our students back to campus this Friday, August 6th, for another fantastic year at Saint James School.

Our New Normal

We are in our second full week of school and everyone is embracing our new normal. We are so proud of our youngest learners who have followed our new rules so well. We also thank our students in upper grades who have taken their roles in fighting this pandemic very seriously.

When you visit our school, you’ll notice transparent partitions at our school main offices, admissions, Furlong hall, and other administration offices. We have also stationed hand sanitizer in higher traffic areas and of course our students are wearing their masks. It has been fun to see how our students style their masks- some choose school colors, some the STJ logo, and some a fun print using blue and gold.

It’s a great day at STJ!

First Day of School 2020- One for the Books!

What joy we felt on Friday, August 7th as our buildings opened their doors for the first time since March. With our new Trojan Operational Plan (TOP) in place, we safely welcomed students back to our classrooms. A school is not a school without the smiling children inside. We are so thankful for our Trojan family.

Although things looked a little different than first-days-of-school in years past, we felt the same energy and positivity from our students. We are so lucky to have wonderful teachers and staff who are working extra hard to make this year special.

Safely Preparing Students for the 2020-21 School Year: Trojan Operational Plan

Flexibility and adaptability will be key components at Saint James this year as we plan to begin our fall semester on August 7. True to our mission, the Trojan Operational Plan will have us on TOP of the health and safety of our students, faculty, and staff as we teach and learn. Trojans, 24/7.

New Rules, Same Fun!

Things look a little different this year at Camp STJ. Of course our campers are having a blast playing with friends, visiting the library, participating in science experiments, dancing and singing, and all of the other exciting camp activities. We have worked hard to provide an enriching summer environment while making safety our top priority. Each morning, before students enter the building, they have their temperatures checked to be sure no one who exhibits sick symptoms comes inside. Students and camp staff also wear their mask of choice throughout the day. We practice good hand washing habits and sterilize and sanitize multiple times per day during camp hours. We may have new rules at camp, but it is the same fun we have grown to love! It’s a great day at STJ!
