SAFETY

With our students, teachers, and parents going in and out the front door of our school throughout the day, we are asking you NOT to pull your car in the circle in front of the main school doors. Thank you for your cooperation in this important safety matter.

MINDSET

“Research shows that parents can have a powerful impact on their childrens’ mindsets." Learn what you can do to promote a growth mindset in your child.(Also a GREAT recommendation for a book to buy them for Christmas!)

SCHOOL DELAYS

& CLOSINGS

There are three ways that we will notify you of school delays and closings. In case of bad weather, please check the school website, your E-mail and local TV news. If Kenton County has a one hour delay, SJS will do the same so that we can use the buses. There are times where Kenton County then makes the decision to close, but SJS may remain open. Please be sure to check several times in the morning to see what SJS will be doing.

PRESENTS FOR PATIENTS

SJS 6th grader, Luke Smith created Presents for Patients last year. He asked SJS to help him again this year. We had an out of uniform day and each student brought in $1 or more to help Luke purchase gifts for the children that will be in the hospital over Christmas. With the extra donations that we received, we were able to give Presents for Patients--$700.00. Thank you to the SJS family!

SJS NEWS FLASH

VIRTUS TRAINING

This safe environment program for children has been mandated by the Bishop of the United States for all employees and volunteers who in any way deal with children in Catholic Schools: therefore if you have not attended a Virtus presentation, then you cannot volunteer - this includes volunteering in the cafeteria, on the playground or as a field trip chaperone. If you would like to register to attend a Virtus session, please go the the website at www.virtus.org. The password is "TRUST".
