Dear Friends of Villa,it has been a remarkable year at St. John Villa academy! all have worked hard to strengthen our academic andextracurricular programs, our student leadership opportunities, and our community ties. did you know...?

• Our High School Class of 2013 received over $11 million in merit-based scholarships.

• Our High School Performing Arts students were recognized for their stellar talents by winning 4 Minty Awards – a new organization that honors theater excellence in Staten Island Catholic High Schools.

• Girl Scouts from our Elementary School Troop received the President’s Volunteer Service Award from President Barack Obama.

• Our Elementary School graduates were awarded acceptances and scholarships estimated at $40,000 to high schools in StatenIsland, Brooklyn and Manhattan.

While our students are empowered by academic success, we are equally inspired by the compassion and dedication theydemonstrated in serving the community in the aermath of hurricane Sandy.

• Students from both schools generously showed their support of friends and neighbors through school-sponsored events aswell as presence in the distribution centers.

• Both schools worked together to organize a Christmas Dinner for Villa families followed by guest tickets to the High SchoolConcert which honored “Sandy” victims.

We are proud of all that St. John Villa Academy Faculty and Staff under the educational leadership of Sr. Lucita Bacat, C.S.JB.(ES) and Mrs. Barbara Logan (HS) do to educate our students to be leaders in their faith, their schools and their communities.ey are able to carry out their important role because of the financial support of our alumni, parents, benefactors and friendsto the Annual Fund - a vital component of the Academy’s operating budget. a strong annual Fund allows us to sustaincurrent success and pursue future opportunities with confidence.

As we write to you, we are keenly aware that many still find themselves in uncertain economic times. However, the mission andreligious values that have always been intrinsic to Villa remain worthy of your continued support.

Dear Friends,

It is hard to believe that another schoolyear is upon us. In June, the High Schoolgraduated 136 talented young womenwho have achieved great academic andathletic success over their four years atVilla. ey truly exemplify what itmeans to be women of faith and action.

I’d like to share with you information regarding the MajorCourse of Study Program offered to our students. At theend of sophomore year all students are invited to declare aMajor Course of Study for their junior and senior year. isprogram encourages students to focus on a particular areaof interest. is focus would enable students to pursue amore individualized program of classes, independent stud-ies and internships in their junior and senior year.

e program will culminate with an extensive exit projectdetermined by the individual departments. e uniquefeature of this program is that it will enable students towork independently under the supervision of a mentorproducing a significant body of work in this field of interest.A student's major will be noted on her official school tran-script. Members of the class of 2013 majored in manyfascinating areas including but not limited to art, fashiondesign, Latin, engineering (science).

We’re very excited to welcome two new faculty members tothe high school in the fields of performing arts and math-ematics. We look forward to them sharing their knowledgeand expertise in their respected fields with our students.On behalf of the Administration, faculty and students of St.John Villa Academy High School, I want to thank you foryour continued support of the Academy. Without yoursupport, we would not be able to successfully continue ourMission.

May God bless you and your family abundantly and keepyou safe. I look forward to working with all of you againthis year.

Sincerely,Barbara Ann Logan
