At St. John's, it has been incredibly rewarding to teach students who are genuinely excited to learn. Each day is filled with students experiencing their A-ha! moments, and I know I have made a difference when our alumni return to campus and share their stories with me. – Mr. Herod, Math Teacher
When I learned St. John's was looking for a new science teacher, I was thrilled by the opportunity to return to the School where I had been a student for so many years and that served as the foundation for my education. Now, I am able to give back to this generation of students who are engaged in all stages of their learning process, and I look forward to what they will become in the future. - Dr. Vaughn, Science Teacher
