The dress rehearsal for Talent on the Plaza will be held on Thursday, Jan. 28th beginning at 3:45pm. Please bring a snack, homework, and/or a book to read while you wait your turn to practice. As per school COVID procedures, parents will not be allowed on campus to view the dress rehearsal. Please wait in the parking lot for students to finish their act and be dismissed. One of the 8th grade STUCO officers will escort all 4th and 5th graders to the parking lot after their act has finished. Parents, be on the lookout for an email from Ms. Fama regarding a rough estimate of a time schedule.

At the dress rehearsal, students should be in their full costume with any props needed for their particular performance. All groups will wear masks (unless singing) and practice social distancing. Individual singers will not wear masks for their performance but all individual instrument players will wear a mask. Thank you for helping our show be safe and enjoyable!

The Father/Daughter Banquet is sold out. Thank you for purchasing your tickets in advance. If you were unable to purchase tickets, sign up for the waitlist below if there are any cancellations for the Father Daughter banquet. All cancellations for a refund will only be based on Covid exposure.

This year, we have moved to a banquet format where all attendees will share a dinner together, take a photo with the photographer along with an activity geared to Fathers and Daughters at their respective tables.

For those attending, we will have Covid precautions in place: similar to our school procedures. All attendees are required to complete a Covid form prior to attending the event, temperature screened at the door, and have seating restrictions in place.

This year, Steps for Students is a virtual event that will be held on the individual campuses of Catholic schools throughout the Archdiocese. Students must register using the link below where our Saints will be completing the race during the week of February 22-26.

Take a look video below from our PE Department explaining the prizes and incentives this year.

Don't forget to designate StJPII as your school of choice so StJPII can receive the funds to be allocated properly. This event is lots of fun and a tremendous community builder for Catholic schools! And, it's a great opportunity to raise money for StJPII and show our Saints pride as well. If you have any questions, please contact the Communications Office.
