Dear Saint John's Families,
Believe it or not, Catholic Schools Week is just seven days away! This week is more than just a break from our typical routine; it is a time to honor the students, teachers, and families who make our school a "home away from home." We have a packed calendar of events designed to celebrate our faith, our service to the community, and—of course—a lot of school spirit! Please read my January 20 Eagle News HERE
Inside:
Catholic Schools week schedule, All are Welcome-Coffee and fellowship, Book Fair is open, Socks of Service, All for Books, Registration UPDATE, Policy Review-entire handbook, Athletics, Sneak Peek, February Calendar, Reminders

Moms: Need Some “Me” Time? Join our mom’s group!
Are you a busy mom struggling to find even an hour and a half of time to relax and connect with Other adults? Maybe you’re looking for a connection for your child’s next play date, or perhaps you are curious about aspects of our school community, church or faith. If any of these are true, we have a group for you.
As we kick off Catholic Schools Week on January 25, here at St. John’s we unite with Archbishop Hebda‘s vision to have a small group for every person in our archdiocese. Laura Haraldson will lead an informational session following Catholic Schools Week Mass at 11:30 AM in the gathering space. This is a noncommittal informational session about the easy way you can add 1.5 hours into your life every other week that requires no in between homework and provides the community, rest and rejuvenation needed to live out your vocation as mother. All moms are welcome; Come and see!
Can’t make it on the 25th but curious? Please fill out this form and we will be in touch: Saint John's Moms Group – Fill out form
Thanks,
Laura Haraldson

Dear Saint John's Families,
What a great day! A huge thank you to everyone who came out for the annual Marathon. The weather was perfect, and the spirit of our community was even better. We're so close to our goal! We've raised $44,800, but we still need $5,200 more to hit our $50,000 target. Tomorrow is the last day to turn in all funds. Let's cross that finish line together!

Dear Saint John's Parents,
As our community continues to process the tragic events at Annunciation Catholic School, I wanted to reach out to you directly. We have all been heartbroken by the senseless violence that has shattered the peace of a place of learning and worship.
I know that many of you are feeling a mix of emotions right now, and I want to encourage you to hold your loved ones close. In times like these, the power of prayer can be a great comfort. Please join us for a Rosary for Annunciation from home, work or wherever you are.
