From the Principal's Desk

Dear Saint James Families,

As we enter this beautiful change of weather and celebrate the Feast of the Queenship of the Blessed Virgin Mary, our school community has been abundantly blessed with moments that reflect both the joy of our Catholic faith and the richness of our Traditions.

We also saw the strength and tradition of our St. James community at Back-to-School Night, where we celebrated with bubbles and ice cream. As we embark on this new academic year, I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to each of you. It was a true pleasure meeting so many of you that evening, and I look forward to getting to know you all better.

A special word of gratitude goes to our marketing committee, whose hard work made that event possible. Your dedication helps promote our school in a way that allows everyone to feel welcome, excited, and supported.

Finally, I want to appreciate our parents and students. Parents, you are your children’s first and best teachers, and your involvement is crucial to their success, and I encourage you to keep the lines of communication open with your child’s teachers and with me. Together, we form a partnership that nurtures not only academic excellence, but also the spiritual and moral growth of our students as well. Students, I have already seen the fruits of the love and guidance in your lives. You have returned to school filled with joy, excitement, respect, and a true desire to learn. It has been such a delight to witness.

May God bless you and your families.

Mr. McDonnell
