Behind the rectory & connected to the large cross is an area known as the “Meditation Memory Garden”. This garden belongs to St. JOHN OF THE WOODS parishioners.
We are asking for a rock to be placed with your family name (Living Or Deceased) in the blank space behind the cross in the garden. No statues please! This is for all the families that have supported and grown with SJOW over the years.

Last year, Pope St. John XXIII STEM Academy conducted an Enrollment Potential Study in collaboration with Meitler, a national Catholic school planning firm. This year, we are extending that work to create a strategic plan for Pope St. John XXIII STEM Academy for the next five years.
As we did in the previous study, we know and understand the importance of hearing from families who currently have children enrolled at Pope St. John XXIII STEM Academy. We are asking you to complete an online survey in order to share your insights and opinions about Pope St. John XXIII STEM Academy. This survey is distinct from the survey many of you completed previously.
Please complete the survey as soon as possible, but no later than May 14. It should take approximately 8-10 minutes to answer the survey questions. All responses are confidential and very important.
