Notes From the Office: January 16, 2024

January 16, 2024

St. John Families:

This week is a short week with yesterday’s holiday and time only gets faster as we go through the month.  Upcoming events for SJS include our Open House on Sunday 1/28/24 (from 2-4 PM) which coincides with the start of Catholic Schools Week.  Students are encouraged to attend Mass (8:30 or 10:30) that day at our parish and those wearing their uniforms to Mass will be rewarded with an out of uniform pass to use at school (any day but Mass Day).  As always, for the Open House, we love to have parent volunteers to lead tour groups/families around that day.  Your personal experiences at the school go a long way in helping families decide to join our school.  If interested in helping (even if it is just to help us set up), please reach out to the office before the 28th.

All the details for Catholic Schools Week can be found in the link down below.  I am particularly excited to challenge the kiddos to stuff my office with non-perishable food items to donate to the Amen House as part of our week long service project.  All the items brought in will be placed into my office with the goal of stuffing me out of the office and into the hallway.  For those that have been in my office, you know I can stand a lot of mess and still get work done, so it will be quite a challenge for them to stuff me out of there!

I would also like to encourage you to support our Gala Fundraiser (held this year on March 16th).  Besides attending an evening of fun with adults, you can also support us by making donations for the silent auction.  Gift cards and fun craft items or game tickets are all easy and desirable donations for others to bid on.  Reach out to Jess Manning and Stefanie Adams for more information or questions and you can drop off any donations at the school or parish office.

Before we have fun at the Gala, don’t miss the opportunity to show your knowledge and spend quality time with fun-loving adults on January 27th for Trivia Night.  Check the details on the flyer below!

Lastly, if you find yourself with some free time on a Saturday, check out the SJS sports teams.  There are youth basketball teams, middle school basketball teams, and archery competitions going on throughout January and February.  For a real treat, attend a game where the SJS cheerleaders are leading the crowd in cheers.  They may be small, but those little kiddos can really get the fans cheering loudly!

Peace,

Mr. Mayer

Field Day Shirts

SIA is planning to purchase every student and teacher the below shirt for field day.  There will be one shirt for students in K-2 and another shirt for students in 3-8.  Student signatures will be on the back of the shirts therefore it is imperative that every student complete an order form.  The $20 price is for any additional shirt you may like to purchase.  Please contact Ashley Steagall at [email protected] with any questions.

2022-2023 Yearbooks

Did you forget to order your yearbook last year?  That's no problem.  We have about 15 extras that are for sale.  They will be on a first come first serve basis.  Please email the office at [email protected] if you would like to purchase one.

Snacks and Drinks

Just a reminder that all students should bring a snack and drink from home everyday.  All classes have a snack time for students.
