Extra Curriculars at St. John
I was SO PROUD of our Drumline on Friday Night, performing downtown for the Big Shoulders Fund Ball. The students played and represented our school beautifully. Extra Curricular clubs are just one of the many things that make St. John special. We'd love to offer more, especially Basketball, if we can find coaches and sponsors. See below for more info on our current offerings! - Mrs. Santellano

Bio: Candice Johnson
I am Ms. Johnson, and this is my first year at St. John de la Salle. I am a Chicago native and have taught high school and middle school English Language Arts for twelve years. Literacy is my passion and I enjoy helping students fall in love with reading and discovering their hidden talents in writing. Outside of reading, my interests include traveling, writing, calligraphy, and crafting. I am sponsoring our first ever SJDLS Debate team and FLAG (Fight Like a Girl) squad this fall.
