HOMECOMING 2010
This was an especially exciting homecoming year because the pep rally
on Wednesday evening was jammed with what looked like a record number
of students, staff and alumni. There wasn't even room for
everyone in the bleachers-- what a GREAT problem to have...it shows
that the Saints Spirit is alive and well. This feeling continued
into Friday night's football game at Brick City where Coach Meunier led
his team to a very decisive victory in front of a packed crowd of
Saints fans. Go Saints!
HOMECOMING 2009
This year, like other years, was a great chance to catch up with many
St. John graduates and see pictures of their St. John days which gave a
virtual history of fashion. Some alumni pictures showed them
gracing the St. John hallways in bell-bottoms back in the 70's or in
big hair and popped collars in the 80's. There were also
pictures of 90's graduates wearing grunge as if it were high fashion.
Our recent graduates get off kind of easy as far as looking like
a slave to fashion thanks to the school uniform that was adopted by St.
John in 2001. No matter how much our Saints' fashions change, one
thing never changes: we are all a part of the St. John family--
and, more importantly, God's family!
HOMECOMING 2008
It was great seeing all the alumni at the Homecoming Pep Rally on
Thursday night (October 9th) in the gym and at the Homecoming Football
Game on Friday night (October 10th) at Brick City Park. It's always
great to see our alumni, but especially at these festive events.
Once a Saint, Always a Saint!!
HOMECOMING 2007
Thanks to all the great members of the St. John Alumni Family who came
back to visit during the Homecoming events which were in full swing the
week of October 29th. Some alumni highlights of Homecoming Week were
the Pep Rally on Thursday evening, the Football Game on Friday evening
and the Alumni Reception at Grille 754 that followed the game. Some alumni
even stopped to by to watch the high school classes compete for class
honor in the Olympiad Games which were held on Thursday & Friday.
And remember, alumni, you're always welcome to visit us-- even outside
of Homecoming Week. We love seeing you guys at any time of the year!!
