How do you figure out how to graph data when given only averages? You add in a quest for cookies, a BMX bike, and a stop sign and then throw in some acting skills! That's how it's done in Mr. Banchoff's 6th grade math class! #SHINEbrighter
Ahead of 24 hours of giving on Nov. 30, check out SIX new #GivingTuesday challenges made possible this year through the generous support of the Catholic Foundation of West Michigan!

Did you know all SJV parents take part in P-T Conferences twice a year? It's more than checking on grades, "it's checking on how our kids are doing" - Parent Deanna C. "It's really important to have those strong relationships with parents" --Teacher, Mrs. Szumski #SHINEbrighter
SJV HONORS THE SAINTS at our annual Saints Wax Museum. St. John Vianney was among the saints who visited to share their life stories. In this All Saints Day tradition, 5th graders teach about the saints and we all pray and serve to call forth the saint within. #SHINEbrighter
