Congratulations to our Mission Award Recipients! 🌟

We are so proud of the many students who were recognized this morning — it may even be a record number of honorees! Each student highlighted truly represents our mission through their kindness, leadership, responsibility, and positive... example.

Keep up the incredible work — you make our school community stronger every single day!

We were honored to welcome a parish member from our Human Concerns Committee into our school to work alongside our students on a meaningful service project.

Together, they began to create Mercy Mats for Mr. Bob's Under the Bridge, using recycled plastic bags that will be crocheted ...into sleeping mats for those in need. This hands-on experience helped our students learn the power of compassion, service, and caring for others.

Mr. Bob’s Under the Bridge fosters a community of compassion and friendship by providing basic necessities—such as clothing and hygiene products—to individuals experiencing homelessness in Milwaukee and the surrounding communities. What began in 2007 with just six backpacks and open hearts, founded by Bob and Sue Burmeister, has grown into a 501(c)(3) nonprofit serving countless individuals with dignity and care.

We are proud of our students and grateful to work alongside our Parish to support such an inspiring mission.

At St. John XXIII Catholic School, we take pride in bringing together the right people—individuals who are not only talented and dedicated but also committed to fostering a culture of faith, learning, and community. Each year at The Key Event, we recognize and honor faculty and staff who go above... and beyond, making a lasting impact on our students and school family. These exceptional individuals inspire, guide, and support our students in countless ways, and their dedication ensures that SJ23 continues to be a place where every child can succeed.
For 2026, we are thrilled to honor the following outstanding members of our SJ23 community:
✨ Mrs. Cindy Gibson – The Creative Visionary
✨ Mrs. Laura Gallitz – The Faithful Guide
✨ Mrs. Seneca Graykowski – The Heart of the Office
Thank you for the countless ways you inspire our students and strengthen our school each day. We are so grateful for you!
