Dear Parents & Students, We hope all is well with you and your family as we come to the close of a successful first week of school at St Joes. It is important to us that our freshman students have opportunities to bond as a class. St Joes is dedicated to creating new opportunities so that our students do not miss out on this vital aspect of the SJ experience.

Freshman Bible Mass Due to the restrictions on indoor gatherings, parents will be unable to attend our New Student Bible Mass (originally scheduled for this Sunday, September 13). As an alternative, we will be celebrating Mass on Monday, September 14 and Tuesday, September 15 - for our Maroon & Gold Teams respectively - in the gymnasium with our Freshmen. During this Mass, freshmen will be given their personalized student bibles. This is a time-honored tradition at St Joes.

Freshman Mixer  We are thrilled to be able to host a Freshman Mixer for our students. The mixer for students on Team Maroon will take place on Wednesday, September 16 and the mixer for students on Team Gold will take place on Thursday September 17. Both mixers will run from 2:10PM - 3:30PM. On Wednesday and Thursday, Freshmen will be dismissed from their last period class (Period B) at 2:00pm in order to avoid any confusion during dismissal. Student Council representatives will meet their freshman groups and guide them to one of four activity stations around our campus. Students who need to catch the SJ or Trumbull buses will be allowed to leave the mixer early. If students are being picked up, their parents/guardians should arrive at 3:30pm.
