- Sts. Joseph and John School Sets New Record!
On Wednesday, May 11, 2006 history was made at the Classroom of Champions competition at St. Edward High School.
The Sts. Joseph and John School Academic Team set a new record by being the first team to win the "Grand Championship"
three years in a row! This has never been done since the competition started seventeen years ago. The school is also
the only school to have won the title five times in those seventeen years. These titles have been won with different
team members each year! This year's team is pictured. They scored a total of 370 points to defeat Incarnate Word with
315 points and St. Angela Merici with 235 points. The team continued the outstanding academic accomplishment experienced
by the school teams competing before them. Congratulations on a job well done!!
- SAINTS JOSEPH AND JOHN SCHOOL GOES TO " WAR "
Before visions of the Crusades come to mind, don't be fooled, this war had only winners
and a message of faith and hope. This war was forged out of human compassion and love.
The students of Sts. Joseph and John School have rallied around a former student who was
stricken with cancer. Sarah Cahal, a former student at Sts. Joseph and John, was diagnosed
with a rare form of cancer only months into her junior year at St. Joseph's Academy.
The burden of medical bills was piling up on the Cahal family, as Sarah had to be flown to
Houston, Texas for special treatment. So, the students of Sts. Joseph and John decided to lend
a helping hand. The school held a "Penny Wars" to help raise money for the Cahal family.
The idea was for the students to bring in coins from home to help support the cause. The outpouring
of generosity was inspiring. After one week of collecting coins the final tally turned out to be
over $10,000. That money went directly to the Cahal family and hopefully will relieve some of the
burden of high medical expenses. The students of Sts. Joseph and John School have shown, through
their generosity, that not all wars have casualties and that human compassion is alive and well in
Strongsville.
