Community Event in 1 week!
SHOUT OUT TO OUR SCHOOL BOARD AND OUR STAFF!
Each Fall, the state releases accountability measures for every school in the state. These two graphs show the percentage of St. Johns' students scoring over a specific proficiency rate in comparison to the percentage of students in the rest of the state who scored over those same proficiency rates in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Math for school year 2021-2022. As you can see, we have some amazing teachers and staff members who work tirelessly to help students succeed. Thank you teachers and staff!
As these numbers have been released, many school administrators around the state have noted the "learning loss" that occurred during Covid-19 due to all the disruptions to students' learning (e.g. schools closing, schools modifying schedules, the uncertainty of what schools would do week to week, etc.). We are so grateful for a school board that found ways to keep students safe while also keeping them in school with limited disruptions throughout the pandemic. Our students have benefited from that!
Thank you school board: Brent Overson, Eve Patterson, Delos Bond, Leslie Wenhardt, and Dave Eisley.

If you are planning on doing a float for the homecoming parade and have not filled out the float form, please get with Olivia Wiltbank at wiltoli@student.sjusd.net or call the high school office. We don't have a lot of float forms turned in and we want this to be a successful parade!
Remember the parade will follow the same route as last year!
Homecoming should be a lot of fun! Brandi Oveson and the student council have put together a great series of events. Please come out and join us in the festivities next week.

The Homecoming Parade will be next Friday, October 7th. We will be following the same route as last year, starting from the middle school and ending at the park. See map for more details.


The Fine Arts event tonight has been CANCELLED due to major leaks caused by the rain.
