SJCA Lion Line OP - May 2026

This has been an exciting year, and it is coming quickly to a close. However, before we get to the end of the year, there are still many events to take part in. Our budding Thespians put on an outstanding performance of American Revolution, the musical. We also had many scholars display their wonderful talents for all to see. Their hard work and dedication was truly seen. I'm not sure I can think of the American Revolution the same way after their performance. Likewise, our 3rd-grade scholars had a great day getting up close and personal with horses, bringing Black Beauty to the forefront of their minds.

As many of you know, our board has voted to "pause" growth of SJCA-OP at KG - 8th. Please know this action is taken with heavy hearts. Also, know that the administration and the board are actively seeking solutions that will allow SJCA-OP to continue to grow fully into the Upper School. As er continue to work through this 8th grade pause, please join us at the Orange Park Planning and Zoning Board meeting on May 14th, 6 PM at the Town of Orange Park Council Room.

Please take note of the upcoming activities and mark your calendars for some outstanding events and our summer camps.

Thanks for all your support, and as always, Go Lions!

Parents, please remember that we should not be on our cell phones during car line. This causes serious scholar and staff safety concerns. We ask that you please refrain from being on/holding your cell phones during car line.

Please also refrain from having your scholars hang out of the side windows or sun roofs. This creates a large safety hazard. We are seeing this becoming increasingly common.

The Read-A-Thon raised over $7,000 towards our lift fundraiser! Thank you to all of the families and scholars who participated. We hope you had the opportunity to dive into some amazing adventures! Scholars will receive their rewards before the end of the school year.

As a school fundraiser, you can purchase a "Class Of" t-shirt or sweatshirt from Stryker Custom Designs. Both can be worn on school spirit days.

Cost ranges between $20-$27. Orders are placed online and picked up at Stryker near College Avenue and County Road 220.

Proceeds will be used to purchase supplies needed across the campus.

Would you like to see your scholar's birthday on the digital, outdoor sign when you come into carline? Now, you can! As a new fundraiser, you can pay $20 and wish your scholar a happy birthday in a fun way.

When signing up, please list the date you'd like to see your scholar's birthday on the sign. If, for example, your scholar's birthday falls on a Saturday, but you'd like to see it on the sign on Monday, please enter Monday's date.
