Dear SJL families,
I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to inform you of some changes within our teaching staff that will impact the upcoming school year. I want to share the news that our beloved math teacher, Mrs. Moon, will not be returning next school year.
Mrs. Moon has been an integral part of our school community, and her dedication to her students and passion for teaching math have left a lasting impression on all of us. However, she has made the decision to stay home with her children and new baby (due in September) and we wholeheartedly support her in this exciting new chapter of her life.
While we will miss Mrs. Moon dearly, we are committed to ensuring a smooth transition for our students. We searched for a qualified replacement who shares Mrs. Moon's enthusiasm for teaching and will continue to provide the high-quality education that our students deserve and we have hired Mrs. Sarah Schultz.
Please join me in congratulating Mrs. Moon on the upcoming arrival of her bundle of joy. We are grateful for her contributions to our school and know that she will always hold a special place in our hearts. God’s blessing Mrs. Moon!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Libby MacGillis
At the beginning of May, we will be launching a brand-new school website! The URL will still be www.sjlseagles.com. After the new website has launched, our church and school sites will have the same look and feel (church website is www.sjlplymouth.com). The new school site will have all the features of the old website and the SJL Plymouth app combined, so we will no longer be using the app. We welcome feedback as you navigate and use the new site and we hope it’s a helpful tool in the success of your children!
Scholastic Olympics is a competition in which students can match their wits against students from other SALSA schools. Together team members answer questions in the areas of religion, math, language arts, social studies, science, and more.

Mrs. Moon is coaching the 5/6 team and Mr. Mueller will coach the 7/8 team.
The celebration of Christ's ascension into heaven occurs every year on the fortieth day after Easter. This year, that day is Thursday, May 9 and the service at St. John is at 6:30pm. As we have often done in past years, we will celebrate with a festival service of song led by both the Adult Choir and the Gospel Light Chorus. Come celebrate this important event in the life of Jesus.
