The Emily Jancart Foundation was established in 2013 to honor the memory of Emily Jancart, a St. James School graduate. Each year, an essay contest is held with two $1,000 scholarships awarded to St. James students. One scholarship is given to a St. James student in grades K-7 to be put toward their St. James tuition for the next school year, and the second $1,000 scholarship is awarded to an 8th grader going to any Catholic high school, to be put toward their 9th grade tuition. This year's K-7 recipient is Mira M. Congrats, Mira!
