St. Joseph's School Parent Letter

A Message from Principal Rickbeil 
On this last day of the school year, Mr. Rickbeil’s weekly video reminds us that every day is a school day, and gives thanks for a great year of learning.  Have a wonderful summer break, everyone!

Congratulations St. Joseph’s School Class of 2024
Congratulations to the St. Joseph’s School Class of 2024.  We are incredibly proud of you and we wish you well as you move into high school.  Thank you parents for your partnership and we are incredibly blessed to have shared these important years of your life. You will always have a home here at St. Joseph’s School.  

Fitness Fun Day Thank you!
WOW! What a FUN fitness fun day!   Thank you Ellen Kennedy for leading the Ninja Course activity and thank you to Christina Mahady for leading the all school picnic lunch.  These wonderful ladies and all of the amazing parent volunteers made this whole day so extra special for our students and staff.  We are incredibly grateful! 

Kindergarten Circus
We wanted to give a special thank you to Mrs. Bollinger and the Kindergarten teachers and students for an outstanding Circus performance.  It was so special and such a great way for our Kindergarten students to end their school year!  Bravo!

Summer Reading Challenge
The Summer Reading Challenge for grades K-5 will be going home on May 31st with your child.  Mrs. Chamberlain has explained the "Book Bingo" card and log in sheet to all classes.  There will be a brief instructional sheet attached.  Summer Reading is meant to be FUN.  This is an optional program but recommended to keep students active in reading during the break.
