Notes From the Office: February 22nd, 2021

Greetings,

The rain and above freezing temperatures alleviated any concerns we had about slippery conditions this morning. As I walked through the classrooms today, it was obvious everyone was glad to be back. Hopefully, the weather will cooperate and we will have a consistent stretch of school days from now until Spring break ( April 2, early release day ).  Our two open houses have produced a great amount of interest and excitement about St. John School. Word of mouth has always been our best advertisement. Please let everyone know that SJS is a great place to grow academically and spiritually. Keep us in your prayers as we prepare for our transition out to Cardome. Thank you for all your support of St. John School.

As an additional reminder, on Friday, February 26, teachers at St. John School we be receiving their second Covid vaccine. Due to the scheduling of vaccines times by Scott County School District we have made a slight adjustment to the middle school schedule:  The middle school will have a virtual day. 

- Preschool - 5th Grade will be having school as usual on this Friday.

- There will be afterschool on Friday.

God bless and take care,

Dan Mardell

Principal

“The family, is so to speak, the domestic church.” (Lumen Gentium #11)

We are excited to announce that we have partnered with Good Shepherd to bring CHRIST IN MY HOME Ministry to SSFJ!  Each week, a short video (no more than 10 minutes!) will be sent via email and posted on our SSFJ website. The videos will help you prepare for the following week's Gospel along with practical ideas for building your "domestic church".   It is our hope that you will set aside a time  to view the video as a family and invite Christ in to your everyday living!

Videos and discussion questions will be emailed out on Sunday afternoons and posted on the SSFJ Facebook Page & the SSFJ Website.
