It has been a very fun week here at Saint John School, and I don't know who is more excited for the appreciation week activities - the staff or the students! The students really know how to hype a teacher up!

Thank you to everyone who contributed to the prize pool - we appreciate our families as much as they appreciate our staff!

Reminder: Mass tomorrow (Thursday). Students should wear their Mass uniform.

Have a great rest of the week!

In Christ,
Mrs. Tice

Join us this Friday on the playground for a movie night!

Bring your own chairs or blankets.

We are still working on snacks - but you may want to bring those, too :)

As promised, some of the faculty and staff will be spending the night. We want to include our students in some way so . . .

We are inviting each student to bring one stuffed animal to school on Friday. This special furry friend will receive a personalized bracelet and then spend the night with the staff. Photos will be posted on Facebook page throughout the night of the fun and mischief these stuffed friends may get into.

Stuffed animals will go back home on Monday.

We will not be sending home hard copy information of the 2026-2027 Dress Code Policy or vendor catalogues. Please see our website for the recently updated Policy, uniform guidelines, and ordering links at: http://www.saintjohnsch.net/school-uniform-information

The entree on May 18 will be cheesesteaks.

You can find the order form using this link:

The yearbook price is $24.50 plus tax and service fee. Yearbooks are estimated to arrive mid-summer and will include the end of the year school events. The deadline to order a yearbook is May 29th.

With the continuing increase of shipping costs, and with a successful yearbook distribution over the past three years, we will be having another two-day yearbook pick up at Saint John School. The two pick-up dates will be determined upon notification of yearbook shipment. If you are unable to pick up on either of the TBD dates, your child’s yearbook will be sent home on the first day of school.

The After School Care Enrollment link is now available for May 18-22

If you are planning to have your child utilize the After School Care Program during this time, we ask that you register them using this link by 12:00 p.m. on Friday, May 15, 2026

The Home and School Association would like to welcome our newest member, Heather Shevchik O'Brien! Heather will be joining us as our newly elected Vice President.

She joins Megan McGoran, our President and Melissa Price, our Secretary.

The Home and School Association has one more position left to fill. As the Treasurer, you would keep track of the Home and Schools financial records and put together a report to bring and share at meetings. If you are interested and have a child entering Kindergarten through Fifth grade, please let us know. You can tell Mrs. Tice, Melissa Price (Secretary), Megan McGoran (President), or Heather Shevchik O'Brien (Vice President).
