Don’t forget to purchase your tickets for the SJJ PTU’s Pancake Breakfast with St. Nicholas, Sunday December 11, 2022, anytime from 9:00am – 1:00pm at St. John Neumann.  Tickets on sale through November 30th.

Pancake Breakfast with St. Nicholas – Cheddar Up

Few fun updates to share!

Knights of Columbus have graciously offered to do the cooking and run the kitchen at the event and we are very grateful for their support!

Over 80 SJJ students will be volunteering their time at the event, serving breakfast and running games and crafts.

St. Nicholas will be there throughout the event and he is looking forward to visits and taking pictures with SJJ families and friends!

If you are volunteering for the event, you only need to buy a ticket for the event if you plan to eat the pancake breakfast.  Volunteers are welcome to eat with their families, preferably before or after their shifts. All student volunteers can purchase the Youth ticket at $6.

Thanksgiving Break

There will be no school Monday, November 21 – Friday November 25. Enjoy your break and time with family and friends.

In service of youth,

Mr. Akosi
