  Cuddle-up and Target Reading Program Continues! ...

We are happy to announce that the St. James' Nursery School is beginning another year of our "Cuddle-up and Target Reading Program".  We would like to thank the Target Store Corporation and particularly the Frederick Target for supporting our school by providing funding to support this program.  The focus of this project is to encourage parents to read to their children daily and to excite children about books and reading.  For four months of this school year, children will earn free books by reading with their parents each month!

   New Computers in all classroom!! 

Thanks to a grant from the Maryland State Department of Education we are happy to add to all of our classrooms Computer Learning Centers. Software and earphones, also purchased through the grant, will allow individual children to work with technology as an enhancement to our program!
