Happy September! Our virtue of the month is Responsibility.
Last week ended with some fun events! We had our first assembly to kick off the school year on Thursday, and the 8th graders spent Friday on retreat. At our assembly, we recognized several amazing staff members who display virtue in so many ways, and our 8th graders led us in our annual back-to-school chant. Mrs. B talked about kindness activities, and Mr. Herzet shared all the fun ideas SHOJ has planned for the year. God is good!
Check out these opportunities for our 7th- and 8th-grade girls at St. James Academy!
Save the Date! Next Friday, September 4th, we'll hold our annual Lemon Out fundraiser to support Alex's Lemonade Stand. $5 gets your child a free dress that day (we encourage yellow or gold colors)! Check out the flyers below for all the details and related events happening at St. James Academy. More info to come later today in Mr. Herzet's weekly email. Let's help raise money for pediatric cancer research! Together, we can make a difference! *Free-dress guidelines can be found in our handbook on the portal and on our app within the event. Event shirts are optional and can be purchased HERE
What a joy to see all of the students and staff come together to celebrate our first All-School Mass of the year! We are off to a GREAT start!

From Smart Families: Group chats and gaming spaces can help children connect—but they can also normalize exclusion, cruelty, pressure, and harmful language. Our newest Be Smart newsletter explores the science behind these online dynamics and gives parents practical ways to help children recognize toxic behavior, respond with integrity, and ask for help. Read and share the issue with your community, then explore every Be Smart newsletter at //smart-families.org/newsletter. Together, we can build healthier norms for childhood.

Happy First Day of School! It's going to be a GREAT year!
St. John Eudes was an important promoter of devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary, establishing the first feasts in their honor. His fervor greatly influenced the Church's spirituality, leading to the universal celebration of the Feast of the Sacred Heart.
Today, on his feast day and our first day of school, let us ask for his intercession for a blessed 2026-27 school year at Sacred Heart of Jesus Catholic School! Let’s go!
