From Our Principal…
Dear Friends of SJE,
It is with gratitude that we present you with the 2011-2012 Annual Report. We are proud
of the great accomplishments of the past year noted within the pages of this report. SJE
possesses a long legacy of excellence in academics. Our rigorous curriculum and
outstanding faculty/staff place SJE among the top schools in the nation for high
academic performance. The true value of a good Catholic education, however, is found in
the rich spiritual environment. At SJE, Jesus is in the center of all that we do. Both
components are necessary to fully nurture the God-given potential of each child.
Through your generous support, you contribute to our mission of preparing students for
everlasting life. Grounded in Reverence, Respect, and Responsibility, SJE forms
well-rounded, faith-filled leaders, fully prepared academically and spiritually for the
challenges and opportunities ahead of them. Your financial gift helps SJE keep tuition
affordable for all, provides resources and technological advances necessary for
strong, innovative academic programs, and develops students on fire with the love of
Christ!
Thank you for all the ways you support SJE. May God bless each one of you!
Karen Vogtner
Principal
St. John the Evangelist Catholic School is a two-time National Blue Ribbon School of Excellence
founded by the Sisters of Mercy in 1954. The Sisters remained at SJE until 1988 when Sallie
McQuaid became the first lay principal. Our school has continued to grow since 1954 and now
offers full-day Pre K through 8th Grade where our students are provided a Christ-centered and
academically challenging environment. We are accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges
and Schools (SACS), the Southern Association of Independent Schools (SAIS). We are members of
GA Independent Schools Association (GISA), Atlanta Area Association of Independent Schools
(AAAIS), the National Middle School Association (NMSA), and the National Catholic Educational
Association (NCEA).
Our 320 students come from 231 families commuting from 38 zip codes, represent over 25
countries, and speak more than 15 native languages. The St. John School community remains
predominantly Catholic with 23 parishes represented. Nine faculty and staff members are SJE
graduates and 30 are current parents or parents of alumni. 75% of our staff members either have
advanced degrees or are currently enrolled in an advanced degree program.

Pledges
Do you know how much you would like to give but are not ready to make your gift in one
immediate payment? You can make a pledge at any time and fulfill the pledge any time before
June 30. Payments may be made in installments or a one-time payment.
Cash Gifts
Cash gifts include those made by check, credit card, electronic funds transfer, or payroll
deduction. Cash gifts can be made via mail, walk-in, or online using a credit card.
Online Giving
Make a credit card gift online by visiting our website, www.sjecs.org, and clicking the “Donate

Matching Gifts
Many companies offer gift-matching programs that can make your gift go further by matching
your contribution. Ask your company’s Human Resources department or contact the SJE
Development Office to see if your company will double or even triple your original gift.
Stocks and Securities
Gifts of stocks, securities, or bonds are a wonderful way to contribute and avoid paying capital
gains tax on the appreciation. Please contact the Development Office for assistance.

The SJE Home & School Committee does amazing things! The Race for Education is a fantastic way
for the student (and teachers) to raise money and get active at the same time. By collecting flat
donations or per-lap sponsorship, our runners have a day full of fun-raising AND fund-raising. The
Black & White Auction is a lovely event that provides an opportunity for the SJE community to
come together for food and fun. The event features a silent auction with items like theater/sports
tickets, vacation packages, Game Night baskets, and even a golf bag signed by Archbishop Gregory!
The main event is the live auction, which includes high-demand items like reserved seats to the
Christmas Musical, student art, tuition certificates, and the highly coveted First Spot in Carline.
Home & School also sponsors many community-building events like Mother/Son Bowling, the
Father/Daughter Dance, Sandwich Making, and the SJE 5K.
We hope you will get involved with our active Home & School Committee. There is always something
exciting going on!

Jesus told us what we do for the least
of his brothers, we do for him. It helps us
to be Christ-like.
I give to remind me of how I can develop

me at SJE.
