  • Christmas Blessings

    Wishing you and your family all of God’s Blessings this Christmas!

    As we prepare for Christmas, we recall that Advent is a time of hope, waiting, compassion and kindness, as we await the coming of Jesus. During this time it is important to take to a moment to reflect and give thanks for the many blessings bestowed upon us, but also to pray for those members of our school community and families that maybe facing challenges during this time.  

    Christmas is a time of reflection, gratitude, and togetherness – a moment where we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ and the boundless love He brings into our lives.  At this special time of the year, we remember that St. James and St. Ann’s School thrives on the support, dedication, and involvement of our staff, students and parent community. Your continuous encouragement and partnership in nurturing our students academically, spiritually, and emotionally are invaluable.  We offer our heartfelt thanks for your prayers and support throughout the year!

    The birth of Jesus signifies a new beginning for all of us. A time for renewed hope, peace, love and new beginnings. On behalf of the staff of St. James and St. Ann’s Catholic School, we would like to wish you and your family a wonderful and peaceful Christmas and a New Year blessed with health and happiness.

    Mr. Bittante and Ms. Lewis
