Ask someone in the community what they first think of when you mention St. John's Day School and they are likely to say May Day. For over 50 years, students of St. John's have celebrated the wrapping up of the school year with this traditional pageant. Each year a theme is chosen and songs and choreography are developed around that theme. Each class wears appropriate costumes and performs songs and dances developed by the music instructor.
The highlight of the evening's entertainment is the dancing of the Maypole by the 6th grade class. Following the performance, backyard games and activities are enjoyed by the children, along with a dinner and silent auction.
