SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT MEMO - Everything You Want to Know Week of February 7, 2022 FROM THE PRINCIPAL: Welcome to the mid-year mark!  We have officially completed half of the school year and progress reports will be ready this Thursday. With our new Student Management System FACTS, we anticipate that we will be posting progress reports directly to your parent portal  Since this is our first time not sending home a “hard copy,” we will make sure to eblast all families so you are aware when they are ready for you to view. On Monday, St. Valentine reminds us of 1 John 4:16: “And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them."  Students are welcome to dress in “Valentine theme” free dress (red, pink, hearts, etc) and classes will celebrate Valentine’s Day in their classrooms before dismissal.

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT MEMO - Everything You Want to Know Week of January 31, 2022 FROM THE PRINCIPAL: Happy National Catholic Schools Week! On behalf of the entire SJF faculty and staff, I would like to thank you for your commitment to your child’s Catholic education. As a mom of children in Catholic education myself, I recognize the time and financial commitment it takes to be an active member of the school and larger parish community. I wholeheartedly believe that the investment you make in your child’s educational career creates the platform for not only their academic success, but more importantly, a solid spiritual foundation. Thank you for being part of our family!
