Re-Enrollment Time Is Here
Save the Date - Next Meeting 2/22
Last week, the re-enrollment materials for our current families were sent out in the mail. Please take a look at them and turn them back in as soon as possible. Families who re-enroll by February 22 will save $75 per child on their re-enrollment fees. Making your commitment early also helps us plan efficiently for staffing and supplies for next year.
Open House Success Thank you to the 106 families, representing 147 students, who attended our Open House event last Thursday evening. We also welcomed 8 inquiring families to the event, and both sets of numbers represented an increase from last year. We were excited to share classroom experiences and presentations about Faith Integration, Technology Use, and the “Extras” that make up an SJCS Education. Thank you all for partnering with us and for participating in our Recommend One campaign. As the spring and summer application seasons continue, we want everyone to know that our Recommend One campaign is ongoing. Take the opportunities that God provides to talk to people about SJCS and invite them to tour or apply. Let us know the names of people you recommend, and if they come by to see us or turn in an application, we will give you a free water bottle. And, if that family ends up enrolling at SJCS, you will receive $500 in Tiger Bucks to use for any number of school expenses.
