🐌 🌿💧 Saint John Third Graders are continuing their Trout in the Classroom studies! This time, they've joined forces with experts from the Department of Ecology and the Rock Lake Conservation District to conduct a fascinating investigation of the water quality in their very own Pleasant Valley Creek! These young scientists are actively engaging in fieldwork, collecting and analyzing crucial water parameters such as turbidity, pH, temperature, and the diverse community of macroinvertebrates thriving within the creek's ecosystem.

St. John School District Superintendent/Principal Update: Board Selects Three Finalists, Invites the Community to Weigh In Dear St. John Students, Parents, and Community Members, We are pleased to announce that the St. John School District Superintendent/Principal Search and Selection Process has reached an important milestone. Following the completion of the application deadline, screening, and reference checks, the St. John Board of Directors has selected three finalists who will advance to the final round of interviews. The three selected finalists are Tina Strong, Guinevere Joyce, and Rick (Beau) Winters. The final round of interviews will take place on April 4th. Throughout the day, each finalist will participate in meetings with various stakeholder groups. The process will conclude with a Superintendent/Principal Finalists Community Forum at 5:45 to 6:45 in the cafeteria. This forum will provide an opportunity for community members to hear each finalist respond to a series of pre-selected questions relevant to our community, schools, and current educational trends. Attendees will be asked to provide written feedback immediately following the forum. The input received during this session will play a key role in helping the Board make its final decision. We encourage all community members to attend and participate in this important process. Thank you for your continued support in selecting the next leader of our school district.
