Service Learning
Eighth grade students chose the Chattanooga Community Kitchen as their first service project for the school year. In just three days, students collected 700 pounds, or over 1000 canned goods and an additional 1000 pairs of socks. Mrs. Gadd's third grade class collected the most cans and Fifth Grade collected the most socks. Thank you students for all you do to help our community!!!
Creative Learning
St. Jude School students have spent the first semester working hard and learning! With the creative inspiration of our wonderful faculty, students have excelled in a variety of areas. 6th grade students spent several weeks studying Egypt in Social Studies and Literature. Complimenting that study, science teacher Mrs. Brincks led a project on "mummifying chickens". This hands on project was a hit with the students!!
Principals Day
Principal, Mrs. Goodhard and Vice-Principal, Loraine Torrence were honored on Principal's Day for their dedication and love. Thank you!!
GRANDest Friends Day
In Thanksgiving of You....for all that has been, THANK YOU, ...for all that will be is your LEGACY to us...Students and staff honored over 300 grandparents and special friends with a mass, buffet and special program. The touching presentation, directed by Katie Leahy, and classroom visits were a joy to visitors and students alike. Thank you to all our GRAND friends who add so much to our lives and support our students each and every day!
Joy to the World
Thanksgiving and Christmas bring much excitement to St. Jude School. Special parent luncheons were held, along with the much anticipated Preschool Thanksgiving program and sweet First Grade Christmas Program.

Giving life to those in Need
In a moment of spirit and loving enthusiasm, St. Jude staff committed to the Heifer International program.
Beginning September 15 and continuing through Catholic Schools Week, St. Jude Staff will lead students in a variety of activities to help end hunger for 30 needy families around the world.
Watch for more information to follow, but please take the time to thank all staff members, and especially the following committee members, who have stepped up to make a difference: Lucinda Millard, Beverly Fazio, Kyra Ross, Loraine Torrence, Kathie Etherton, Katie Leahy, Brandi Harlan, Barb Dubois and Nora Montieth.
As the late teacher and astronaut, Christa McAuliffe once said, “I touch the future, I teach.” Our teachers touch the futures of our children and our world…THANK YOU!

We Will Make a Difference!
Using Marian Wright Edelman’s book, “I Can Make a Difference” as a guide, St. Jude School has adopted “I Can Make a Difference” as its character education theme for the 2006 – 2007 school year. Outlining a series of 12 value principles, the book teaches that it is both a privilege and an obligation to try to make life better, even if we don’t always succeed.
With values ranging from the Golden Rule to the importance of honesty, every student will have the chance to learn and live the principle. Every student will be given a laminated key, imprinted with the value they are presently studying. It is our belief that at the end of the year, this set of keys can help the student change the world in which they live – even if it is in one small step at a time.
