6 of my 9 children have graduated from St. John's and are doing very well in high school and post high school. The support we have received from the school to instill an attitude of gratitude, respect, love, kindness, a strong work ethic and accountability for one's learning and behavior has been amazing. I am very grateful for this strong, Catholic community.

Agreed! St John is an incredible school. My 5k student can already read!! Fine job. Now they really should think about adding a summer camp, the grounds and building are perfect to support one.
