Academics

At St. John’s, we emphasize the development of higher-order thinking skills in our children. Our hands-on learning approach to education begins in Pre-K with the expansion of fine and gross motor skills and continues through eighth grade with creative problem solving embedded in the curriculum. Our faculty members work together closely to ensure our curriculum builds appropriately over the grade levels. We teach children to trust in themselves and we foster the growth of their self esteem and self confidence – preparing them to live and contribute in a world that will be vastly changed by the time they reach adulthood.

St. John’s students learn the traditional subjects of mathematics, science, language arts, and social studies. Because we believe a well-rounded education requires more than strong roots in the fundamental skill areas, we also provide students the opportunity to develop their own identities and avenues of self-expression through a comprehensive enrichment program featuring visual arts, music, drama, foreign languages, and physical education. Additionally, Middle School students receive instruction in speech and religion and have the opportunity to pursue individual interests through a variety of electives.
