St.  John Bosco Academy is grateful to donors who made the purchase of a new-to-us van possible.  A special fundraiser was held at this year's Mystery Night for a new van, which raised nearly $20,000.  A few additional donations helped reach the goal, which allowed the school to purchase a used van and have funds to purchase winter tires.  Fr. Paul blessed the van after a school Mass, asking God's protection on the passengers and drivers.  The van will be used for daily student transportation, athletic events, and field trips.  Thank you to all who contributed to this purchase.
