IF YOUR CHILD HAS AN APPOINTMENTIf your child has an appointment, please bring in a note from the Doctor, Dentist or Orthodontist along with you when you sign your child in the school office.
SCHOLASTIC BOOK FAIR INFORMATIONFriday, September 5th, from 5-7pm and Saturday, September 6th, from 9-noon, we will be hosting a fall Scholastic Book Fair located in the gym lobby. Students and teachers will be able to preview books on Friday, September 5th and make their wish lists.
Our school will receive 60% of the profit from the fall Book Fair. (For the February Book Fair we will receive 70% of the profit. We receive a higher percentage at the second book fair because we are hosting two book fairs this year.) Between the two fairs it is our goal to purchase listening centers for Kindergarten through Second grade and the Reading Resource room. We would also like to purchase books for all the classrooms and the library.
ATHLETICS
SPORTS SCHEDULESSports Schedules for Volleyball and Soccer are attached to the e-mail and can also be found on our St. John web site at www.stjohnls.com.
CONCESSSION HELP NEEDEDWe are still looking for some help in the concession stand for Sat. Sept. 6th from 10:00 – 5:00 from home volleyball games. We have two games that will be Tuesday, Sept. 16th beginning at 6:00 p.m. and one game that is scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 7th beginning at 5:00. If you are interested in working, this would be a great opportunity to get your FAITH hours in early. You don’t have to have a child who is in athletics to enjoy coming and cheering on the RAMS sporting events and helping out St. John Athletics.
