Leadership Message
Happy New Year! We can't wait to see you Wednesday! We LOVE our St. John kids!
As we embark on a new year with joy and anticipation, we pause to reflect on what the year will hold for us, how we want to embrace this gift of time, and who we want to be in 2023. We recognize that new beginnings offer us an opportunity to renew our hearts and spirits for growth. Thank you staff and families for your continued partnership and commitment in making our school community Better Together. See you Wednesday!
“I beg you to lead a life worthy of the calling to which you have been called, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, making every effort to maintain the unity of the Spirit and the bond of peace. There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to the one hope of your calling, one Lord, one faith, who is above all and through all and in all”. Ephesians 4:1-6
