Lion-hearted Values
St. John's Lion-hearted Values are:
| CARE | COURAGE | GRATITUDE |
| JOY | RESPECT | RESPONSIBILITY |
| HONESTY | CURIOSITY | SERVICE |
Each Lion-hearted Value is deeply explored during one month of the school year; however, each of the values is important all year long. St. John's faculty, staff, and students are mindful to teach, model, encourage, and reflect on all of the Lion-hearted Values throughout the year as opportunities arise in our curriculum and in our interactions with each other. Below are the months in which we will explore each value as a school, and the values' definitions.
