There will be seating inside as well as space to congregate outdoors, weather permitting.

Happily Planning Your Ever After (Faith-based)
*For dating, engaged and young married couples*
Saturday, June 19th, 2021
10:00am-12:00pm
We fall in love and decide to get married. But will that initial euphoria of love carry us through to a happily ever after fairy tale romance? Sadly, no. If a life-long/successful marriage could be attainable merely by falling in love, then why are there so many marriages that end in separation or divorce? The fact is, to sustain a loving/healthy relationship, both spouses in a marriage must find ways to keep connected to, grow with, and support their shared journey--together. An early step in this process is working together to clarify expectations, make plans, and establish goals. Join Certified Professional Christian Life Coach Shane Hansen for an interactive seminar designed to help engaged and newlywed couples get their marriage started on the right track. Shane will apply the proven processes associated with the discipline of life coaching to the focus of happily planning for (and living) your ever after. Location: Great Marriages Office-IN PERSON! Cost: $15/person (includes snacks and beverages); Limited to first 20 people; Register at: www.great-marriages.org/events

Thank you to all who helped make our St. John Lutheran teachers feel appreciated!
Our PTO members did an outstanding job on our Wednesday and Friday luncheon.
Parents were awesome by getting involved throughout the week, sending many appreciated gifts.
God's Blessings and many thanks to all the wonderful families that we have been blessed with.
Update to May 21 lunch menu.
Hot Dogs have been added and turkey chef salad has been removed. Students may be requested to change their order, if needed, due to limited supply of certain items.
A big thank you to the PTO for approving a project using funds that they have raised. This project will enable us to more easily live stream sporting events in our gym and other events through the purchase and installation of professional grade equipment. Their generosity of time, talents, and financial resources continue to bless our school beyond measure.
Will your child be starting Kindergarten or 6th grade next fall? This summer will be an excellent time to have them visit their health care provider for an exam and to provide the needed vaccines required for school. While the kids are out of school, it’s much easier to arrange for them to receive these required vaccines. If you plan to do it early in the summer, you avoid the rush before classes start in the fall. Provide the dates of their new vaccines to school so we can update their school records. Now is the time to talk to your provider about the required and recommended vaccines for your child.
Grades K-2 Track Meet will be held Thursday, May 27 from 1:00-2:30 PM on the parking lot/playground. Spectators are welcome to attend.
Rain date: Thursday, June 3.
Medications -- If you provided medications (over-the-counter or prescription) for your child(ren) to take at school, YOU MUST pick the medication up PERSONALLY, as the law prohibits us from sending it home with a child. If medications are not picked up on or before June 18th, they will be disposed of by the school.
Textbook fines, tuition balances, lunch balances, and library fines must be paid in full by MON JUNE 7 or report cards, diplomas, and student records may not be released. Families who cannot pay in full must contact Mr. Lindsey (principal@sjlplymouth.com) to make payment arrangements. SCRIP purchases can be made during the summer to build family or school tuition credits for 2022-23.
Lunch accounts: For students returning to SJL, positive lunch balances will automatically carry over to 2021-22.
Lunch accounts: For students NOT returning to SJL, positive lunch balances can be donated to the SJL lunch program, transferred to another SJL family, or (if over $5) can be refunded by check. Parents can check lunch balances under the FINANCIAL section of Sycamore. Parents requesting a refund or transfer must contact Diane Adams (dadams@sjlplymouth.com) by THURS JUNE 10.
Report cards will be mailed some time after June 7th.
To celebrate Jayson and Judy Krall's Retirement at SJL, please gather your photos! Whether it was class trips or fun times in the classroom, we would like to celebrate their time at SJL and thank them for the memories they have given us. Please share your memories with us by sending your photos to sbm.puetz@sjlplymouth.com by the end of May.
As we close in on the end of the school year, we have an exciting first time event coming up for the band students in May. Our Spring Concert will be held on Thursday, May 20th at 7:00 pm. at the New LHS Worship/Fine Arts Center. Warm-up time for the students will be 6p.m., doors open at 6:30 p.m.
On our last day of school, Friday, June 4th, we will be having an EARLY DISMISSAL. All 4K-8 students must be picked up at the park by 11:35 am. Bussing will NOT be available. A mid-morning snack will be provided by the school at no cost to students. Parents are welcome to enjoy the day, or part of the day, with your child. Chapel will be held at 8:00 am and then 4K–8th grade will collectively walk to the park and enjoy some games and Christian fellowship. Teachers WILL NOT dismiss their students from the park unless a parent is at the park to pick up, or you have indicated TO THE TEACHER that your child is allowed to walk home from the park. Otherwise, your child will be walked back to school for childcare (which should be pre-arranged). Please feel free to contact the classroom teacher with any questions or concerns.
Starting Wednesday, April 28, the 3K-2nd grade are doing the end of the year countdown. Please see information on the calendar below.
Because we have not had a snow day this school year, there will be no school on Friday, May 28, 2021.
