Brookfield is a wonderful community, known for its great neighborhoods, great shopping, great restaurants and importantly, great schools. This blog will provide insight into life and education at St. John Vianney school, a 4K-8 educational anchor in Brookfield since 1957.
Kelly is a full-time mother of four, with three attending SJV and the fourth aspiring to attend when she's old enough for preschool.
I don’t know about you, but I’ve been to enough church festivals to open my own elephant ear stand. In fact, I should open an elephant ear stand since I already know how they work from standing in line all these years. Yet with all of the half-eaten ice cream cones and cotton candy handed to me, along with the inevitable spilled beer that I endure, there really is something unique about the Saint John Vianney Church festival. Maybe it’s the wristband Saturday for $15, or being a spectator at the 5K run for the pig (I don’t have any problem with running or walking activities, as long as somebody else is doing it). I know where I’ll be this weekend and I hope to see you there also - just don’t spill your beer on me.
