Loving God, give us what
we need to “do small
things with great love” as
Saint Teresa of Calcutta
did. Inspire us to give our
hands for service and our
hearts for love. We ask
this through Jesus your
Son in the power of the
Holy Spirit.

Dear Parents/Guardians,
It’s hard to believe the quarter is almost over. Remind your children to stay
focused and turn in their work. If you have any questions about your child’s
grades, please contact his/her teacher. If you are unable to access Power School,
please email me at [email protected].
The St. John Knights of Columbus are having a Fall Festival on Saturday, October 1st
beginning at 5:30 p.m. - 9:00 p.m. at St. John School. There will be food, games, and
even a dunking booth! If you bring a non-perishable food donation for our local Warrington Emergency Aid Center, you will receive a chance to dunk someone. Who knows...it
might even be me!
Please continue to check your children in the morning for the correct uniform.

Es difícil creer que el primer cuarto de año escolar está por terminarse. Recuerde a sus estudiantes para centrarse y entregar todo su trabajo. Si usted tiene alguna pregunta acerca de
calificaciones de su hijo, por favor póngase en contacto con su maestra. Si usted es incapaz de
acceder “Power School”, favor de enviarme un mensaje por correo electrónico [email protected].
