Dress Down Day
Students will be permitted to dress down on Halloween. They may wear jeans or sweat pants as well as the t-shirt of their choice. The purpose of this dress down is to make it easier for them to change into their costumes for the 2:30 parade in the MPR.
Congratulations 3rd graders

Amazon Smile
Did you know that if you shop on Amazon.com that Amazon will make a donation to St. John School based on the amount of your purchase? Simply go to https://smile.amazon.com and register an account. There are a lot of St. John Schools, so I recommend that you type in our Tax ID# (42-0736175) when it asks you for the charity of your choice. This is a free service and helps out SJS tremendously.
Additionally, they have announced an upcoming AmazonSmile promotion. From Oct 29 - Nov 2, AmazonSmile will increase the donation rate on all eligible purchases. This will be their largest bonus donation promotion to date, and is a great opportunity for St. John Catholic School to benefit from AmazonSmile donations.
