Dear Parents/Guardians,
Next week, St. John School Mass will be celebrated on Tuesday October 22nd in-stead of Wednesday, October 23rd, due to Convocation for our priests. The following week, we will celebrate Mass on Friday, November 1st for All Saints’ Day, rather than on Wednesday, October 30th.
Our St. John Gala is just a couple of weeks away! Join us for an evening of dinner, live music by Fr. John, dancing, and an amazing live and silent auction with incredi-ble items! Tickets are $45 per person, or $80 per couple. Purchase tickets in the school office or online at www.givesignup.org/TicketEvent/StJohnSchoolGala. You will not want to miss it!
On November 9th, St. John School will be celebrating Veteran’s Day with two events, first visiting the Naval Hospital and then our Veteran’s Day remembrance cel-ebration at St. John. See the flyer on page 4 for more details.
Karate now meets on Tuesdays and Thursdays after school Kindergarten-2nd meet on Tuesdays and 3rd-8th grade meet on Thursdays.
