  • I attended St. John's school a LONG time ago.. back in 1971-1972 ..back then, my
    teacher was Ms. Dyer. I can remember the wonderful old architecture of the school and the beautiful Church..I believe that my cousin Mrs. Benevento, taught 2nd grade (I think) before she became a Principal.. The children were nice. I remember books like "Dick and Jane and Spot" I remember attending Mass once a week ... I loved St. Johns. I know that the demographics have changed and the attitude (from reading
    these posts) but I wanted to say something positive to those not fortunate enough to remember this school as I did.
