Our mission is to create a place to encounter Jesus. Steeped in love and Catholic teachings, we provide strong academics to foster continual learning in mind and spirit.

Dear SJB Families,

Happy Feast of the Epiphany, Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year! We hope everyone enjoyed a great break from school and took the time to enjoy Christmas with loved ones.

This week might seem long for a lot of us, especially the kiddos as they get back into the school routine, but we are so excited about what 2020 will bring!

 

On Friday of this week, students will be served a bagged lunch in lieu of the hot lunch listed on the school lunch menu. This is due to a funeral luncheon that will be taking place.

Enrollment for the 2020-2021 School Year Opens January 20

I cannot believe it’s 2020 already! As a kid, I dreamed that we’d all be driving flying cars by now, or we’d be able to simply think about a place we wanted to go and transport ourselves there. Now it’s 2020 and while technology is very good, we’re not quite there. But, technology makes everyday life a lot easier, even when it comes to registering your kids for the next school year!
 

On January 20th, you will receive an email in your inbox from our enrollment management company, TADS. You will receive an email for each child you have enrolled at St. John’s. Simply follow the link found in the email to enroll your child for the 2020-2021 school year! 

 

We NEVER WANT financial concerns to deter a family from choosing St. John’s! We work with families to make affording a Catholic education possible for anyone who desires it for their children!. St. John’s partners with the Aim Higher Foundation in providing scholarships for qualifying families (K-6). We also offer tuition assistance through our own dedicated funds (Preschool - 6th). To apply for either, please visit https://www.mytads.com/. 

 

Two additional scholarships are available for preschool families (students under 5 years of age). Families First offers scholarships for St. John’s families visit https://www.familiesfirstmn.org/ services/early-learning-scholarships/. The Richard M. Schulze Family Foundation also offers Early Learning Scholarships. Learn more by visiting the Schulze Family Foundation Website

If you have any questions during enrollment we would love to help guide you! Please call our school office at 952-492-2030 for general school questions and for questions regarding our online enrollment please call the TADS support line at 1-888-210-4857.

 

Thank you for choosing St. John’s to partner with you in giving your children a Catholic education!  
 

 
Aim Higher Scholarship Application Deadline
 
St. John's has several ways families can receive tuition assistance. The first of the scholarships we offer is the
Aim Higher Scholarship (K-6). The Aim Higher Organization works to assist families of the greatest need at each of our archdiocesan Catholic elementary schools. Recipients must apply each year for this scholarship to continue, but once it is given, the scholarship is given annually (if applied for) to the student through their years at St. John's!

The Aim Higher Organization is currently accepting applications for the 2020-2021 school year. Log-in to our online enrollment system, TADS to apply! The deadline for applications for this type of scholarship is February 18th.
Come Cheer on the Saints!
