View this email in your browser A Note from the Principals Happy Monday SJF Families! Congratulations to our volleyball team who competed in their first game last week! Go Spartans! We are about half way through the first trimester. Progress reports will be released on Schoolspeak on Thursday.  Student of the month awards for September will be given on Friday after mass. The character pillar for September was Respect. You will get an email from your child's teacher if they were chosen to receive the award for Respect. The pillar for October is Responsibility. Next Tuesday is the feast day of St.  Francis of Assisi. We will celebrate his feast day with the Blessing of the Animals. Families are welcome and encouraged to bring pets, photos of pets, or stuffed animal pets to school for a blessing at 7:45am. All living animals must leave campus after the blessing, please.  Reminder: If your child is sick, please keep them home. Although COVID has not been as big of an issue this year, we are still requesting that all students who are coughing, have a runny nose or a fever are kept at home until they are feeling better. Students do not learn well when they aren't feeling well and they could get other students or their teacher sick. Thank you for your consideration.   Many Blessings!
