Notes From the Office: February 4th, 2018

Greetings,

 

The snow and cold caused many of our Catholic Schools Week activities to be cancelled last week. However, the students enjoyed the activities that we were able to complete. They enjoyed lego projects, games, school wide bingo, and delicious sundaes with their favorite toppings.

 

Last week, while completing a grant for the school, there was a section that asked for a list of student and school achievements. After some research and thought, quite a list was compiled. Our students have many awesome achievements while attending St. John and many more as they continue their education in high school and college. When I reflect on this list, it is very apparent that we have an excellent school. I am very excited to work at a school with such fantastic students, staff, and parents!

 

God bless and take care,

A Scout is reverent. St. John’s BSA Pack 167 would like to invite all Scouts past and present to our annual Scout Sunday mass, Feb. 10th at 8:30 am. Calling all Packs, Troops, Adventures, Eagles and more, please join us in celebrating scouting in our community. Following mass, please join us for fellowship and donuts in the undercroft, all are welcome!  If you are interested in joining scouts or volunteering this would a great opportunity to talk with other Scouts and Leaders.  All current scouts please wear your class A uniform!

Silent Auction Item Sneak Peek!!

 

 

Would you like to own a piece of history?  During the renovation of St. Francis in 2017, several pieces of broken stain glass were removed and replaced.  Some of the broken pieces have been made into a stain glass work of art by local artist, Frank Connor.
St. Francis de Sales was built in the 1800’s by the Dominicans.  This one of a kind piece of art is valued at $350.00.  It will be available at the silent auction during the Heart to Heart Adopt-A-Student Dinner and Dance on February 9 ^th.
