7/9/2025
St. John's administration let go of one of the best teachers at the school recently. This person coached multiple sports, started a brand new program to lead young people into public safety, and truly cared for each of the students. The school administrators pushed them out wrongly and this will truly affect the school in more ways than one. St. John's should be ashamed.
