Beautiful warm weather and NCAA basketball - life doesn't get much better. All our St. John basketball teams finished their seasons this weekend. The teams represented our school very well and had good seasons. I would like to thank our athletic director, coaches, players, parents, and fans for making this a successful season.
I want to extend a special thank you to all who are helping the Bwerevu family with meals and support this week and last. The memorial Mass for Manda Bwerevu Sr. was
Saturday afternoon. Please continue to pray for their family.
As we continue with open enrollment, please spread the word about our great school. As parents, you are our best recruiting tool!
God bless and take care,
Dan Mardell
