Art Smart Program

The Art Smart program has been a SJA tradition for many years.
The program highlights a different artist each month. Parent volunteers* go into the classroom to share information on a (predetermined) artist by sharing a quick video or images then work on an art project based on/inspired by that artist. All projects are age appropriate and a lot of fun for the kids. At the end of the school year, artwork will be displayed at the SJA Art Exhibit.
Art Smart is a parent run program so we need your help!
Contact Leslie Koby by clicking the button below for more details.

The SJA Marketing Committee is looking for a few talented & dedicated individuals within our community to share their knowledge, skills, and creativity in helping us spread the wonderful message of St. John’s Academy.
Our primary needs are in the area of video production, copywriting and design — though we are open to all those with a creative/marketing background.
If interested or you know of anyone that may be,
please reach out to Marketing Committee Chair, Greg Cox.

Dad Squad

The SJA Dad Squad is a group of fathers of current and former SJA students that host monthly social events outside of school and contribute collectively to the SJA community through volunteering and fundraising drives. For more information or to join, reach out to our Co-Chairs Adam DeSimone and Chuck Trottere.

Uniform Exchange

The Uniform Exchange is a great way to share gently used uniforms that your child/ren have outgrown. All pieces are inspected and cataloged. Parents may reach out to Birgit Loncar anytime to donate items or inquire about available inventory.
It is not necessary to have an exchange in order to use the program.

Sponsoring the Red & White Gala?

SJA's Red & White Gala is a tremendously popular event that draws over 500 people far and wide for a night of great fun, food, and prizes. This year's event will add a Casino Night alongside the traditional Tricky Tray! Continued support from our families and local businesses through sponsorships and donations is essential in making this event a huge success.
There are a number of ways to donate a prize to the Gala. You can purchase a gift from our wishlist, work with our personal Gala shopper, or email Caroline Wright for any other donations you may have.
