Weekly Updates
February 2017
Greetings,
I hope you had a chance to read the February 11th edition of the the Georgetown "News Graphic". There was an excellent article highlighting the middle school service project with the Senior Citizens Center and the Amen House. Also, we had several students attend the Fayette County District Science Fair. They all did a great job! Congratulations to Linela DeBoard and Kristin Drummond for winning first place in their respective divisions. They are now eligible to compete in the regional science fair. Great job St. John students - you are the best!!!!
God bless and take care,
Dan Mardell
