Long sleeve t-shirts, pocketed sweat pants, and fold-up chairs -- the CJ Online Spirit store just re-opened with new items and fresh designs! The new storefront, launched last week, is a continued partnership with Logos @ Work, located a half mile south of CJ (937 South Patterson Blvd). 
Purchases can be picked up from the store, or delivered directly to homes. Other store updates include a size chart, expanded item descriptions, and plans to feature seasonal items.

We are also in the process of initiating online ordering for spirit wear and spirit packs for teams and clubs. All designs are CJ approved and bear official school logos, and the new method will help simplify ordering for parents. It is another way CJ is strengthening its brand image, as all items produced with the school's name (through the online store or through other vendors) are to follow the school's logos & standards guidelines.

It will be exciting to see a new array of Eagle wear being worn throughout Dayton, and if you have any questions about the CJ Online Spirit Store, official school items or ordering merchandise, please contact either me or Alex VanderSluijs, marketing associate (email). We are glad to help.

School Safety Drills
Each year, CJ school administration -  in consultation with the local fire and police departments as well as the Archdiocese -  reviews our emergency procedures and makes updates to our plans as necessary.  Today, we practiced our lock-down drill, one of the three drills that are required by state law in addition to fire and tornado.

In addition to these, we will practice an evacuation drill sometime next week. W e have been notified  that the number of threats made to local schools has recently increased, and since student safety is a priority for us, we thought it would be best to prepare for the unexpected.

Thank you for choosing CJ, and if you have any questions, please let me know.

Founders' Thoughts       

St. Julie "I do not think of what people say or think of me , I want to have God for my judge."

Fr. Chaminade
"Our work is sublime; it is magnificent. . . it is because we are missionaries of Mary, who has told us to 'do whatever He tells you.' Yes, we are missionaries because to each one the Blessed Virgin has delivered a mandate to work at the salvation of our brethren."
