Saints Simon and Jude Parish School

SSJ School News


We are into the swing of things after the first few weeks at Saints Simon and Jude School. Our students and teachers are gathering in the gym each day for our traditional “morning assembly” where we pray together; listen to daily announcements; and where our students receive their “birthday blessings”. Assembly ends with a very important reminder as we all recite the SSJ School pledge, “I know that Jesus is present in each of my classmates and all of my teachers; therefore, all of my actions will show my respect for Jesus.”

Thanks again to all our students, parents, teachers, and staff for all your hard work to make this a great school year.

Blessings,
Sister Regina Elinich, IHM

Saints Simon and Jude's School Board of Limited Jurisdiction was established in the fall of 2016. The School Board is committed to advancing the mission of our school. The board committees include: finance, enrollment, development, facilities, board membership, and long range strategic planning. The school curriculum and personnel issues are the responsibility of the principal.


Our students walk to school following our opening liturgy with their Buddies. SSJ's Buddy program pairs students in 6th, 7th, and 8th grade with kindergarten, 1st, and 2nd grade students. They enjoy spending time together during school masses and other special events.
