St. John Vianney School > Grandparents

At St. John Vianney Parish School we realize the importance of grandparents in the lives of our children. Many of you are here each day picking up students after school. Several of you have given presentations in Hawaiian Studies or religion classes. Others involve yourselves on the playground, in fundraisers and Country Fair. Others, of course, are raising your grandchildren yourselves. Even grandparents who live far away want to know how their grandchildren are progressing and to share their school lives.

Some years ago we had an active Grandparents Club. We sent our grandparents the monthly newsletters and information about what is happening at school. We invited them to special events. Grandparents who lived on the mainland or outer islands would come to visit the school when they were in town. In fact, our current band program was begun with instruments donated by a grandfather from the mainland who asked what the school really wanted. Grandparents are great supports to us, whether monetary or as volunteers or simply in their prayers.

Just by virtue of being a grandparent, you are a member of the club and will receive our mailing. We ask that you fill out the enrollment form and return it to us so that we can know you better.

Thank you for all you do and may Gold bless you.

Yours in Christ,

Ms. Jane Ann Quinn
Principal
