SJA’s annual Spring Fundraiser is upon us! Our goal for this year is $9000 so let get out there and support SJA! We are raising money for new equipment in the gym and science lab!

As of yesterday, we have raised just shy of $6000! Outstanding job SJA! Because of that we were able to shave Mr. Palumbo’ s head!! That means we are less than $50 off to pie teachers in the face, and just over $3000 off of our goal and water ballooning the teachers! Congratulations to Mr. Foster’s grade 1 class for raising the most money this week!

Important Dates for the Spring Fundraiser:

April 27th - make your own Sundae day! - order forms and money were due on Monday, April 25
April 29th - Bowling Day - PYP

There will be prizes awarded daily to classes and students who raise the most on their pledge sheets. Keep going grade 4’s!! SHOW ME THE MONEY!!!!
