The St. John School
Educational Foundation was formed in 1982 to assure the continuing existence
of St. John School through long-term financial support. The Foundation
was revitalized in the mid-1990s by Sr. Patricia Fischer, school principal,
and a core group of school parents.
The Foundation is
guided by a Board of Trustees that meets monthly during the school year
to make decisions that carry out the purpose of the Foundation. The
current Board of Trustees includes:
|
Steve
Bliss
|
Michele
Morgan
|
|
Tony
Delecki
|
Carmella
Murray

|
Linda
Faricy
|
Ron
Rybar
|
|
|
Brenda

|
Liz
Bleicher - Administrative Assistant

The Foundation publishes
an Alumni Newsletter twice annually to provide ongoing information to
school alums and to encourage their continuing support of St. John School.
The Foundation raises funds through an annual dinner dance (begun in
2006), a donation envelope collected in June via the Sunday collection,
and other donations. Donors for each fiscal year (July 1 - June 30)
are recognized at the Annual Tree Lighting ceremony held annually in
December.
The
Foundation provides a percentage of its earnings annually to support
the school budget and undertakes projects in areas that will improve
educational experiences for St. John School students. The Foundation
began a four-phase Technology Initiative in 2006; this far this has
resulted in a new server for the school (to support the Edline program)
in year one and newer computers with new monitors in year two.
