April 2025

Dear SJEEC Families,

April has been a fun-filled month! Some highlights included:

  • A visit from the school bus!

  • Fun watching our caterpillars grow and form a chrysalis!

  • Lots of fun learning about caterpillars and butterflies!

We are getting excited for our Ice Cream Social and Open House on April 27th! As I said in my last letter, this is a wonderful time to bring family and friends to see our preschool, meet our teachers, pet some farm animals, play games, do crafts and of course, eat ice cream! In previous years, we have asked classrooms to put together a themed raffle basket for the event, but this year, we decided to reach out to the community for donations. We have had so many generous donations! Some of the latest items in our raffle include:

·         A Worthington Hills Gift Basket which will include various specialty foods, wine and more!

·         A Dublin Dance Gift Basket which includes a dance bag, tutu, and $150.00 towards a class or camp of your choice!

·         An Original Watercolor Painting created by Beth Heisey of High Road Gallery

·         A beautiful pair of earrings from Denig Jewelers designed by Frederic Duclos

·         A pair of diamond earrings donated by Worthington Jewelers valued at over $500.00. These earrings will be a part of a separate raffle. There will be a limit of 40 tickets sold for these earrings and each ticket will cost $20.00. Tickets are on sale now in the office.

Please remember to R.S.V.P. for our event so we can be sure to have enough ice cream for everyone. You can do so at: https://forms.gle/rJJ7UTtWTuf4QE9N8

Enrollment is open!  Please let interested families know about your experience at St. John’s and be sure to invite them to our event on April 27th. We would love to give them a tour and to tell them about our highly qualified teachers.  Have them contact me or Kelly to schedule.
