A Few Notes, Dates & Reminders
St John the Beloved Academy
We had a great Open House this morning--many families visited and expressed strong interest in our school and community. And, as many of you know, we had a wonderful October Party!!
A special thanks to Michelle Mills and all those who helped with these efforts!
There will be another Open House on November 20th and an evening event in January.
Keep spreading the good word, and feel free to invite friends and prospective families to visit, as well as to our next Open House and to the monthly Coffees with the Headmaster.
Speaking of coffees, we will have a special Coffee with the Headmaster in November--it will feature coffee and Tea with Mrs. B!
As some of you know, Tea with Mrs. B! is a tea service that cultivates tea, conversation, and manners. We are looking to partner with them for a few ventures with our students and faculty. They will provide a beautiful tea service for the morning "coffee" and will note some of the services they provide. More info. to follow for this event, and we will ask for rsvps as seating will be limited.
Many exciting things happening--please see the notes below.
Kind regards,
Jeffrey P. Presberg, Headmaster
