“We pride ourselves at St. John’s of not only producing good students but good athletes as well. Although we are a small school, students are able to compete in a variety of sports and these students are prepared once they get to High School.”
Promoting Health
We believe athletics is an integral part of a child’s ability to become a well rounded individual. Athletics promote a sense of sportsmanship and fair play as well as good overall health.
Saint John’s students from grades Kindergarten through 8th enjoy regular gym class and recess in addition to the extra-curricular competitive athletics programs.
