SJCA Lion Line OP - April 2026
April 2026

A Letter From the Headmaster
Hello SJCA Lion Families!
Where did all the time go? It's hard to believe we are in the 4th nine weeks of the year. Allow me to say that while the end is nearing, there is still much learning to be done. Recently, our scholars have had a variety of opportunities to explore their curriculum in real life via the St. Augustine Fort with 4th grade, Science Circus with 2nd grade, and 6th grade completed Transitio as they prepare to join the ranks of our upper school. Additionally, take a look at the variety of summer camp offerings for our campus and please be on the lookout for information regarding testing during the coming months.
Lion families, we could use your help. We will have a site plan review before the Town of Orange Park Planning and Zoning Board on Thursday, 9 April, at 6:00 pm. Your presence during this hearing would be very supportive of our application.
Lastly, I need your help in keeping the bike lane path open on Kingsley. Family parking/waiting in the bike lane on Kingsley is illegal, but also a point of contention with the Town of Orange Park.
Make a point to take advantage of one of the many upcoming activities, and as always, Go Lions!
Drop off Reminders
Parents, please be reminded that at drop-off, we cannot block the bike lane on Kingsley Avenue. By not blocking this lane, we are showing respect to the community of Orange Park. Please help us in this effort.
Read-A-Thon Extension
The Read-A-Thon will be extended until April 17th. Keep up the great reading!
