We had lots of fun basketball this weekend! Check out the school website for upcoming game times.
Principal's Corner
Greetings,
St. John school is back in full swing. Hopefully, the snow will hold off lessening interruptions in the students education. We are currently in MAP Testing mode which gives us another indicator of how our students are improving. We had a good crowd for Open House and I would like to thank all the parents who volunteered to help. I am hearing lots of stories about exciting basketball games from the students. I would like to ask for your prayers as we put together a budget and make plans for next year. Even with a busted water line and frozen pipes now and then, St John School is a great place to be!
Take care and God bless,
Dan Mardell
