"The small class sizes allow my children to get specialized attention from their teachers and to build strong bonds with their classmates." - Jonn, current parent

“I love St. John’s because of the daily opportunity I get to share my faith with my students. It brings me such joy watching my students grow and mature as they become ready for high school and the world beyond St. John’s.” - Mrs. Runge, 8th grade teacher
