This capstone experience invites students to prayerfully discern how their unique gifts and passions can be used in service to others. 14 local organizations shared their missions, helping students choose a ministry where they will serve throughout the year. Please keep our 8th graders in your prayers as they begin this special journey and put the gifts of the Holy Spirit into action! đź’™ đź•Š

⏳ A Message to the Future! 🦅
Our Eagles are making history! Students have filled a time capsule with special class projects, uniform photos, our DOOR Virtues poster, and more—all capturing a glimpse of life in 2026.

👀 Check out these items currently on display at school before they’re sealed away! These treasures will be opened 50 years from now in 2076, giving future Eagles a look back at our school and the memories we’re making today.

See you in 2076! 💙🕰️

Imagine it's the year 2126........What will our neighborhood around SJGS look like? In celebration of our 100 year Building Birthday we had a PARTY today in Fanelli Hall! Students colored with their buddy and discussed what the future of our neighborhood could look like, and of course, we had to have cupcakes! Thanks to all the parent volunteers and HASA for contributing your time! 🦅

Happy Monday! 1959 vs 2026. In preparation for the rededication of our 100 year old school building coming up 9/9, we have been having fun in the archives! Inspired by this photo of the office staff at SJGS in 1959, we staged our own! We appreciate all the hard work from our admin staff and everything they do for our students behind the scenes!
