Jafaria School Returns To Single-Session Schedule

After much thought and deliberation, the Jafaria School Administration Team has made the decision to return to a single-session schedule which runs from 10:15AM through 2PM every Sunday all year. (The time does not change with Daylight Savings Time.)

There will no longer be a separate AM and PM session.

This is as opposed to the separate morning and afternoon session schedule which was held last year.
