Thank you Mr. Fister for doing our server training.
Principal's Corner
Greetings,
Congratulations to the St. John Robotics Team. They were awarded Best Design/Interview for their robot at the State Vex Competition that involved 42 teams. I was impressed by the skill level that our students demonstrated. I would like to especially thank Mr. Sturgill, Mr. Blankenship, and all the parents that helped make this possible. What a great opportunity for our students!
This week we are celebrating Staff Appreciation Week. I have been in education for 40 years and have had the pleasure to work with many teachers. Our staff is truly dedicated to working with students, and I feel very blessed to work with the fantastic staff at St. John School. I hope you will join me in thanking the staff for all they do. Great Teachers + Great Parents + Great Students + Great Parish Support all add up to a Great St. John School!
God bless and take care,
Dan Mardell
