Dear Parents/Guardians,


Third grade will have their annual Saints’ Museum on Friday, October 7th.

Just a reminder that the teachers have an all day in-service this Monday,


Families can continue saving and turning in to the school office the receipts
from Greers, CashSavers, and Greer's Ace or Food Tiger grocery stores. The
Apples for the Students program will run thirty weeks and allow SJS to obtain
school items throughout the campaign. See Page 7 and 8 for more ways to
support St. John.

St. John is participating with Wreaths Across America, a wonderful program
where wreaths are sponsored and placed on graves at Barrancas Cemetery at
the Naval Air Station. It’s a beautiful tribute. The order form is included with
this Messenger.

El primer trimestre termina el próximo viernes 7 de octubre de 2016. Si usted paga el servicio de
leche por trimestre, no se olvide de pagar para continuar este servicio durante el segundo
trimestre.
El tercer grado tendrá su museo viviente anual de santos el viernes 7 de octubre de 2016.
Simplemente un recordatorio de que los maestros tienen un dia de servicio todo el día lunes 10 de
octubre.
Los planes para nuestra gala continuan. La venta de taquillas están a la venta en nuestro sitio
Web. Todavía necesitamos botellas de vino para la pared de nuestro vino.
Familias pueden comenzar mañana, a enviar a nuestra oficina los recibos de compra acumulados
de los supermercados Greers, CashSavers y de Greer’s Ace or Tigers con fecha de 1ro de septiembre en adelante. Las manzanas para el programa de estudiantes funcionará treinta semanas

St. John esta paraticipando con coronas en toda América (Wreaths Across America), un programa
maravilloso donde guirnaldas son patrocinadas y colocadas en las tumbas en el cementerio de
