Thankful Together

By Lori Altenbaumer, 7th/8th Math & Science

Just before the holiday break, our middle school students, faculty, and families gathered together for one of our favorite annual traditions—our Middle School Thanksgiving Feast. This special event is always a meaningful reminder of the blessings we share as a school community, and this year’s celebration was no exception.

Before the meal, everyone joined together in a time of prayer to give thanks. A delicious buffet-style meal followed, complete with all the favorites. Families and faculty sat side by side with students, sharing stories, enjoying one another’s company, and creating memories that will last well beyond the season.

Events like this remind us of the strong sense of community that makes St. James so special. We are grateful for every family who joined us, for our incredible faculty and staff, and for our students who bring so much joy and energy to our halls each day. Happy Thanksgiving!
