DEAR SAINTS JOSEPH AND JOHN SCHOOL FAMILIES,

What a week! We had so much fun celebrating Halloween, All Saints Day and All Souls Day as a school family of faith. Thank you to Mrs. Driscoll and Mrs. Tinnirello for continuing our tradition of the Saints Parade and for helping our first-graders learn more about being a saint.

Congratulations to our three Students of the Month for October! Guiliana, Alex and Christian were all “Caught Being Great,” have shown excellent character, all while demonstrating exceptional behavior in one of the HOPE areas of helping hands, opportunity, promise and excellence.

Thank you to Ms. Kopy for arranging for Strongsville’s own Stateside Provisions to visit our sixth-graders to learn about the daily operations of a food truck. Earlier that morning, the students presented their own 3-D food truck designs and original menus to parent visitors and fellow students. They spoke about their environmentally friendly plans and inclusivity of their food truck business. Our staff also enjoyed lunch from Stateside Provisions in thanks for all they do for our students and school.

A Fall Open House Event for rising Preschool and Kindergarten students and their families takes place on Thursday, November 16 from 6:00-7:30 PM in McGraw Hall. Be sure to see the information below about our exciting new full-day Pre-K program!

A Warm Welcome to our Kindergarteners as we joyfully welcome them as they join us at school Mass tomorrow!

Spirit Day is tomorrow! Be sure to dress in your favorite SJJ Vikings spirt wear tomorrow! Spirit wear must be paired with uniform bottoms and school shoes.

We’re off to a solid start this quarter! Let’s continue the momentum in prayer and thanksgiving at our very first SJJ Family Mass Takeover at St. John Neumann Parish on Sunday, November 12 at 11 a.m. More information is below.

Autumn blessings,

Mrs. Schenek
