We are proud to celebrate this year’s St. John the Apostle Award recipient Amy Parnell - an incredible parent whose quiet, faithful service has made a lasting impact on our school community. From organizing hot dog days and pancake breakfasts, to supporting fundraising, coordinating volunteers, and always being the last to clean up, she gives generously of her time and heart. Her involvement in Parent Council and ward meetings ensures that the voice of our families is heard and that students remain at the center of every decision. Like St. John the Apostle, she leads with love, humility, and dedication. We are so grateful for the many ways she uplifts and strengthens our school.

Happy Easter! He is Risen 💛

Mrs. Lacroix’s class made pysanky eggs using acrylic paint, sharpies and faux eggs! They learned about this Ukrainian tradition and the meaning of specific symbols, created a plan, then set to work! They were laser focused and so pried of their creations! Bonus: no cracked eggs and the fire department didn’t need to be called!

3H brought history to life yesterday as they re-enacted the Last Supper.
