St. John Catholic SchoolNotes From the Office: Monday, November 19th, 2018Weekly UpdatesNovember 2018Greetings,I would like to thank Scout Pack 167 for cleaning up around the flower gardens and shrubs on Saturday. They also raked up leaves around the Parish campus. I would also like to thank all the Knights of Columbus who served up a great pancake breakfast on Sunday after the Masses. The proceeds from the breakfast and the sale of food by Christine Sawalha benefit our Adopt-a-Student program. During this Thanksgiving season, I am very grateful for all the volunteers who give their time and talent to make our school a better place. I am truly blessed to work with great students, staff, parents, and parishioners!Lastly, both our our 5th/6th and 7th/8th grade boys won their season opening basketball games on Saturday. Go Saints!God bless and Happy Thanksgiving,
Dan Mardell

Click here to donate https://lexington.igivecatholic.org/organizations/ss-francis-johnEarly donations are accepted starting today, November 12th.“I GIVE CATHOLIC – A DAY OF GIVING” - NOVEMBER 27Last year your generosity allowed us to improve our school and parish. With your donations of over $7000.00 last year, we were able to purchase electronic equipment that greatly updated our classrooms. This equipment included:- Three 65” flat screen televisions that are able to link with the teachers’ computers and DVD players. This equipment enhances the instructional capability of our school, CCD programs, and parish ministries that might use the rooms.
- Three projectors were also purchased. Our music minister received one for school and church use. Another projector went to our youth group, and the third was used to replace a classroom projector that is used with a smart board. In addition, the school donated a projector to be kept out at Cardome.
- Lastly, we purchased additional Chromebooks for the classrooms.
This year money received will be used to repair the parish/school offices. The repairs include fixing flashing to stop leaks. The money will also be used to do some mortar work and seal the brick. Lastly, the money will be used to repair and paint the walls and ceiling damaged by leaks.Early giving begins today!Thank you for your generosity and support!
