Power of Believing in Jesus
The 6th grade class project this year will be collecting peanut butter and
jelly for St. Vincent De Paul. This project was started several years ago
by a former St. Patrick Catholic High School student. We will collect jars
of peanut butter and jelly and attach a Bible verse to each jar. This is an
affordable way to help minister to those in need. Students can begin
bringing their jars to school and placing them in the box in the main hall.
We will continue collecting through the month of May.
Thank you for helping those in need,
Mrs. Villarreal, Mrs. Holder and the 6th grade classes
A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. John 13:34

READ THE MOST COAST TO COAST!
St. James Catholic School students are preparing to take part in the 4th annual nationwide reading challenge called Read the
Most Coast to Coast set for Friday, February 27, 2015. This national celebration of reading challenges students at all grade
levels to join together and break the record for the number of Accelerated Reader™ Quizzes taken in one day. The record
for students to top this school year is an amazing 4,987,949 quizzes. Our school is among thousands of U.S. schools that will
help top this national record.
Parents can join in the excitement by encouraging their child/children to read even more on the days
leading up to the big event. During the event, Renaissance Learning™ will track national quizzes on
its hosted database and share progress online. Educators, parents, and interested community
members will be able to see progress toward the national goal at
www.renaissancelearning.com/read-the-most.
