1st Day School Supply
We’re excited to share a simple, time-saving way to get all your school supplies ready, without the hassle! We’ve partnered with 1st Day School Supply to make back-to-school shopping as easy as possible for your family.
Here’s how it works:
- Our teachers carefully select and customize each grade-level supply list
- 1st Day School Supply packs everything into one convenient box
- Your supplies are delivered right to you—no store runs required!
Once your kit arrives, just hold onto it and bring all supplies to school on Monday, August 10 to drop off in your student’s classroom.
Sit back, relax, and enjoy your summer knowing school supplies are already taken care of. One less thing on your to-do list—and one more reason to soak up the sunshine!
If you have any questions, we’re happy to help. We can’t wait to kick off another great school year together!
Calling All Student Artists – Design Our Special Book Cover!
In recognition of our nation’s 250th anniversary, our whole school (ELC–8th Grade) is creating a keepsake book: Chapters in American History: A St. John’s School Recognition of God’s Blessing To and Through the United States. This book will be available for family purchase at the end of the year.
We are inviting a St. John’s student to design the cover, capturing the journey and creativity found inside the book. The winner will receive $250: keep $125 and give $125 to a Chapel ministry of their choice, reflecting God’s blessing to us and through us.
Submissions are due April 17, 2026. Click here for full details, requirements, and the student checklist to help guide your design.
