Staff Luncheon for Parent/Teacher Conferences
Thank you for your continued support of our faculty and staff during Parent/Teacher conferences.
Check out the Point App to volunteer your time or the Sign Up Genius to send in a delicious soup, salad, or dessert. We appreciate you all!
Please join us in prayer during October, the month of the Holy Rosary! Please sign up for one or more dates on which you will offer a Rosary for the intentions of the school, students, faculty, and staff, as well as for growth in virtues associated with each mystery of the Rosary. As we pray about the challenges our children face in staying close to our Lord in the current culture, it is a blessing to know that we have recourse to Mary, our Mother in Heaven. In this way, we can be united in prayer for our children's growth in holiness, as well as for those supporting their formation and nurturing their hearts each day at school.
Thank you and God bless you!

Please consider volunteering at the Wolf Den—our school’s concession stand. Each day, more than 150 students stop by after school for nourishment before heading to practice, clubs, or home. The Wolf Den is a volunteer-run operation, and your support is essential to keeping it open and serving our students. We are looking for two volunteers per day from 2:30–3:30 PM. You can sign up for a reoccurring day a week or choose individual volunteer slots that fit your schedule. No prior experience is necessary—training is provided.
Contact Mrs. Clement at rebecca.clement@jpthegreat.org with any questions. Thank you for supporting our JP Wolves!
