Meet Our Pizza Moms
By Jacob Lee and Hayden Bovard

Mrs. Auman is one of our pizza moms.  She volunteers because she wants to make the school a better place and raise money for programs, especially technology and providing our teachers with items that help in the classroom.  She also likes to see her own children every day, even at school.  We get our pizza from Vocelli's Pizza in Ellicott City.  Pizza Fridays are scheduled to begin on Friday, September 19th.  When asked how we could become more environmental friendly, she said last year we started not printing labels for EC classes who ate in their classrooms.  We could completely get rid of pizza labels and rely on the honor system as well.  Mrs. Auman says, "Pizza Friday is my favorite volunteer activity because I get to see and have lunch with all the students."  Mrs. Auman has two children at St. John's.  Ryan is in 5th grade and has been at St. John's since kindergarten and Allyson is in 2nd grade and has been at St. John's since preschool.
