Today, on this Feast Day of St. Francis of Assisi, Fr. Hehir blessed the (stuffed) animals of our PreSchool and PreKindergarten Students. St. Francis is remembered for his love of animals and nature, as he is the Patron Saint of animals and nature. Thank you Fr. Hehir! @CSOboston

It was wonderful to come together as a community for our opening school Mass celebrated by Fr. Brett O'Neill and hosted by Grade 6. @CSOboston

Saint John School has been selected as a 2022 Family Favorite in Boston Parents Reader's Choice awards as the winner of Favorite Faith-Based Elementary School! A true testament to how amazing our entire SJS community is! @CSOboston

As our nation pauses today to remember those in the military who have given their lives for freedoms we enjoy, we pray you would have us all look to you for strength, comfort and guidance. Pictured: Gr. 4 placing flags on the front lawn of St. John Church. @CSOboston

This year, the proceeds from the 2022 Annual Fund will be used to purchase and install a new playground for our entire student population. Will you help SJS reach new heights? DONATE NOW! saintjohnschool.net/giving/annual-…

Today was Grandparent/Special Person Day in conjunction with our Spring Concert at SJS! The concert was such a treat and our GP/SP enjoyed spending time in the classrooms afterwards 💙@CSOboston

May Crowning @SJSWellesley today. Our community joined together first for prayer @sjspwellesley and then processed outside to crown Mary. @CSOboston

We are nearly half way to our goal of $2,500 to benefit the Wellesley food pantry. For every $150, another teacher will get a whipped cream pie in their face on Monday, 3.14 aka, Pi Day!

The last of the donated medical supplies were loaded into SJS parent cars and will soon be transported to help those in Ukraine. Thank you to SJS families and the wider community who stepped up to help by dropping off supplies or helping to pack everything up. @SunflowerFund

WBZ | CBS Boston interviewed SJS Social Studies & Religion teacher Mrs. Metcalf yesterday regarding how to discuss the topic of the Russian invasion of Ukraine with students. boston.cbslocal.com/2022/03/01/rus… @CSOboston

NBC News visited SJS yesterday to highlight the donation drive for @SunflowerFund The number of supplies donated between Monday and Tuesday this week was overwhelming. All donations should be dropped off at school by 12:00pm Tuesday, March 8th! nbcboston.com/news/local/how… @CSOboston

SJS is accepting donations for Ukraine today and tomorrow! The plane bringing supplies leaves this Wednesday and so we won’t be accepting donations beyond Tuesday.

The snow day last week caused us to reschedule our Class Color Clash day for today. We couldn’t have asked for better weather! As a surprise, the faculty challenged grade 6 to a kickball game and had an assist from @WellesleyPolice The faculty ended up with the win! @CSOboston

What a beautiful Catholic Schools Week Liturgy lead by Grade 2! A special congratulations to Daphne and Lulu on receiving their First Communion! Thank you to our Grade 6 students who shared their Chapel Talks with us!

We are kicking off Catholic Schools Week with an SJS Spirit day and an inflatable obstacle course! @CSOboston
