You are encouraged to check out our web page at www.stjohnbaptistschool.org.  Under the “About Us” you may now contact all teachers and staff by email.  Our phones also work so please call us if this is your preference.

 

Because of the snow make up days, we will not have student led conferences as listed on our original school calendar.  Report cards will be distributed during the second week of April and the last day of school (June 10).  It is important for our children to regain consistency with their attendance at school.

 

Our school continues to have our Lenten Fish Fry Fridays that will take place throughout the season of Lent.  Take outs or eat ins are available.  Great homemade pierogies, cabbage and noodles, etc. are available.  You may order during the week by calling the school or call the kitchen on Fridays (724-887-7013).  Hope to see you this Friday as we close our this season. Fish is available from 11:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.

 

Stations of the Cross will be prayed this Friday at 2:30 p.m.  Please come and pray with us.

Living Stations of the Cross will prayed on Palm Sunday, March 28 at 2:00 p.m. All children are to be in attendance. What a great way to begin Holy Week.
