 St. John Vianney works hard to support your efforts in shaping the opportunities that help your children grow as capable, strong, well-adjusted followers of Christ. One of the ways that we accomplish this is with our twinning relationship with Prince of Peace School in Milwaukee. Once each school year, every grade level participates in a special event that helps build and strengthen the relationship between the students from both schools. We feel that it is extremely important for our students to build relationships and a sense of community with people that they might not normally get to otherwise. This past school year, we have participated in a number of great events with Prince of Peace that highlight our excellent school and our strong commitment to the Catholic faith. Some of the highlights from this past year include: - K4, K5, and 1st grade students from Prince of Peace came to SJV for our Nativity and Rumble in the Jungle plays with a snack and activity
- 5th graders from SJV went to Prince of Peace to celebrate the Our Lady of Guadalupe Mass and had breakfast with their 5th graders
- The second grade students at both schools exchanged First Communion cards as both schools prepared to make their First Communion
- 7th grade students from both schools completed a service project at Feeding America in Milwaukee in which they prepared frozen pizzas for homeless shelters.
- 8th grade students went bowling together to celebrate their upcoming graduations and a successful twinning relationship.
Thank you for your continued support of Saint John Vianney School, but also our extremely and rewarding relationship with Prince of Peace School.
Positively SJV,

 SJV Uniform Resale Monday, June 6th, 8:00-10:00am and 2:30-4:00pm in P210
NEW THIS YEAR: Home and School is no longer running the uniform resale as a consignment sale. Therefore, any and all proceeds from the sale will be donated to the SJV Home and School Association to use for programming to benefit all the students of SJV.
If you would like to donate uniform items for the sale, you can drop them off in front of the parish office on Sunday, June 5th before or after the 9:00am and 11:00am masses. The resale is a great opportunity for families to purchase gently used uniforms. You will find a good selection of short and long sleeved polo shirts, pants and shorts; jumpers and skirts, sweatshirts and leggings. When donating items, please be mindful that shoppers at the sale are looking for items in decent condition. Please don't donate items that are stained or well worn.

 Box Top Drive We will have our spring box top drive from May 11- May 20. If we collect 4,000 box tops, the students earn a non-uniform day. This is a great way to help earn funds for Home and School activities without spending anything extra. Have your student find and trim the box tops in your house if he/she wants to earn a non-uniform day. For every box top, our school earns 10 cents - it really adds up!
