Principal's CornerGreetings,
It is hard for me to believe spring break is almost here. The school year has gone by so fast. I hope everyone takes time to rest because it will be busy at St. John School when we return. It is very important that the students keep focused and work hard. MAP testing is at the end of April and the teachers will continue to work hard preparing the students for next year. A special congratulations to Brian Reinhart, who won first place in the Knights of Columbus state free throw contest. Have a safe and restful spring break!
Take care and God bless,
Dan Mardell
