Notes From the Office: Monday, May 8th, 2017Weekly Updates May 2017 Greetings,
I would like to thank everyone who helped with the volunteer outing and staff appreciation week. This was greatly appreciated by both the staff and volunteers. St. John School truly has the best parents!! MAP testing is over and the class results look very good. As we enter the last weeks of school, it is important the students stay focused as we continue to prepare them for next year. Lastly, I can’t thank you enough for your prayers and words of kindness.
God bless and take care,
Dan Mardell

How does St. John School deal with bullying?
I thought this would be a good question since the school board will be reviewing our policy. Unfortunately, this is not always a black and white issue. There is zero tolerance for bullying. However, I must look at each situation and apply appropriate consequences. This could be as simple as talking with students, a warning, or loss of recess. It could also be as extreme as in-school suspension or home suspension. The most important thing is to let teachers know as soon as you are aware of bullying. They, in turn, should let me know.
Registration is open to the public. Please help spread the good news about our school. Click here to view the registration procedures or visit the school website at www.stjohnschoolonline.org
