On Wednesday, June 12th, students from the JPII Sport for Life Program will be sharing games that they've created at our Fun Day. All students will get the opportunity to participate in the activity stations.
Please make sure that your child is dressed for the event with appropriate clothing and shoes as well as a water bottle that they can take outside. The event will happen rain or shine.
We are thrilled to announce that The Servant Leadership Squad is hosting the 11th annual school wide talent show! All students are welcome to share the gifts and talents that God has blessed them with during this show. A letter was sent home with your child this week with all of the details, including audition dates. If you have misplaced the letter, please refer to the document linked below.
St. John XXIII’s Got Talent” will take place on June 20 at 1:00pm in the gym.
Some upcoming transition plans to help our students prepare for next year:
- Grade fours have had a school visit at JPII
- Teachers, along with our Student Support Team have created class compositions based on professional criteria and optimal learning environments for each student
- Teachers and Student Support Team met in collaboration to prepare for new classes
- New families came to our St. John XXIII Open House
- Wednesday, June 19 families can log into Powerschool to see their homeroom teacher for next year. Details on how to do this will be in next weekend's Smore.
- Students with ISPs will have transition meetings with current team and next year's team. Many thanks to Mrs. Holt for her dedicated efforts in coordinating all these meetings
- Any students who require a little more support will have pictures and social stories to aid in positive transitions
- As always, please continue to communicate important information with our team, beginning with your child's teacher, so we can support your child. There are many dedicated people who wrap around your child every day to provide positive and caring faith and learning journeys for each student.
At St. John XXIII, staff work diligently every day to build connections and foster relationships with ALL students, regardless of class, they are all "our kids" and this makes transitioning so much easier. Thank-you for your continued trust in all we do!
