St.
John Bosco Academy will expand into a new wing early this month.
The addition includes classrooms for Preschool through 1st grade, a new
daycare space, and a new chapel. For the last few years, several
classes have met in undersized, temporary spaces. The addition
will allow these teachers and students to move into a full-size
traditional classroom setting. SJB students attend Mass at St.
Mary's Parish each Thursday morning, and also attend Mass each
Tuesday at the on-campus chapel. Four local priests rotate
throughout the month to celebrate the Masses. The new chapel's
dedication Mass with Bishop Peter Christensen is scheduled for
March 2nd at 10 am. The Mass is open to guests, with a reception
and tours of the new wing to follow. Pictured is the new chapel
with pews awaiting permanent installation. Photo provided by St. John
Bosco Academy. Click on the photo for a larger view.
