VOLUNTEER HOURS DUE

SJF families, the end of the year is coming soon, and we need you to finish entering volunteer hours for this school year.  If you know you will be completing hours in June, please estimate and add those hours. 

Here is a quick tutorial on how and where to enter your volunteer hours:

Log in to FACTS family portal and select 'Family Home'

 

Then select yourself in the drop down and then 'add'

As a reminder this year we have changed the requirement to 20 hours per family. For each hour that you did not fulfill, you will be charged $50. If you have any questions please reach out to PTC volunteer coordinator, Nora Jensen [email protected] or 503-481-4817.

Our “Spirit Wear” sweatshirt is up and ready for you to order HERE for the 2022-23 school year. Due to safety and discipline issues with students hiding objects in the pockets (toys, cell phones, etc), no hooded sweatshirts will be allowed for the 2022-23 school year. Thanks for your understanding.

SJF's Summer Reading Program will keep their skills sharp while they are motivated to read. We will honor students with a popsicle and special recognition in September for completing a summer reading activity. See the flyer for details, including suggested book lists, plus local and online activities. Happy Reading!
