Kindergarten learning how nature effects on the earth.
Father Linh helped kick off Catholic Schools Week reflecting on love and happiness. Then we watched a slide show created by Mrs. Mardell and danced to inspirational praise and worship music by Ms. Upton.
Principal's Corner
Greetings,
This week we celebrate the mission of St. John School. Catholic Schools Week is a reminder that we are not a private school, but a mission of SS. Francis and John Catholic Parish. Our goal is to assist the students to grow in their Catholic faith and service to others. We are also able to offer a high quality education and many extra-curricular activities. With more than 40 years in education, I clearly see what a treasure St. John School provides for the future of our church. I also realize this would not be a reality without the sacrifice and dedication of our parents and parish. Please continue to keep St. John School in your prayers!
God bless and take care,
Dan Mardell
