Fundraising Administrator: St. John seeks to fill the role of Fundraising Administrator (currently held by Andrea Marquez). The part-time position provides major fundraising support as well as event planning. If you are interested in the position or have questions, please email Andrea at amarquez@st-johnschool.org.
Accreditation Update: The 18-month evaluation process is complete. The action items created through our self-assessment were validated by our external Evaluation Team. Additionally, some changes were made to action items in the areas of Catholic Identity and our Technology Plan. Following submission of the report to the WCEA accreditation board in April, we will be fully accredited for another six-year term.
Next PA Meeting: Friday, March 31, 2023, 8:30 a.m., Egan Hall. Please note this is a week earlier than normally scheduled due to Good Friday.
