St. John Honored For Student Achievement
Press Release from the Office of ND Dept. of Public Instruction
BISMARCK, N.D., Nov. 17, 2022 – State School Superintendent Kirsten Baesler said Thursday that St. John High School is being honored for outstanding improvements to their students’ academic achievement.
St. John will receive Distinguished Schools Awards from the National Association of ESEA State Program Administrators, Baesler said. St. John was chosen because of its exceptional student performance and academic growth for at least two years.
The national association is made up of state school officials who administer federal education aid programs. ESEA stands for Elementary and Secondary Education Act, the principal federal law that benefits K-12 education.
Each state education department nominates as many as two schools each year for consideration as distinguished schools. Qualifying schools have at least 35 percent of their students in low-income families and have demonstrated high academic achievement for two or more consecutive years.

The high school volleyball awards will be on Tuesday, November 22 at 6:00 pm in the cafeteria. The high school football awards will be on Tuesday, November 29 at 6:00 pm in the cafeteria.

On Thursday, November 17 the junior high girls will have practice in the old gym at 3:30. The high school girls will be in the new gym at 6:30.
