Description

St.James School is a non-profit school for children pre-school through eighth grade . On May 10th we will host one of our biggest fundraisers of the year which is our Annual Spring Auction entitled, "Under the Big Top" with a Circus Theme.It is a tricky tray auction  with over 400+attendees.We sell food and drinks and have a band to listen to when you are deciding what basket you would like to try and win with the tickets you purchase when you arrive. It is alot of fun and excitment.  Of all the good causes that you are asked to support throughout the year, we ask that you consider a donation to St.James . 

As a private, parochial school,our mission depends on the support of parishioners, the families we serve, and businesses in the community. St.James is an excellent example of the importance of where community, administration,faculty and parent involvment lead to a well-rounded education. As parents we work full time jobs and volunteer numerous hours to meet our fundraising goal.All the proceeds go towards the learning environment for the children in the form of educational materials, smart boards, books, sporting equipment, etc. 

Businesses in the past have donated items such as baskets of their products,gift certificates,sporting event tickets,sports memorabilia, and services as well as monetary donations, to sponsor some of our bigger prizes. 

We cannot express how grateful we would be for your participation and support.
