St. John's is a Catholic parish K-8 school serving our families and those from the neighboring areas and surrounding communities of San Lorenzo.
Our dedicated faculty and staff, in partnership with our parents, offer our students a quality academic foundation.
As we teach for skilll development, intellectual enrichment, and academic and physical excellence, we challenge and prepare our children for future growth in today's society.
We create a Catholic atmosphere in which the values, traditions, and ideals are fundamental to our academic vision for cultivating faith formation, personal integrity, and lifelong learning.
St. John School provides quality education in a caring, Catholic environment.
The teachers, staff, and students endeavor to model the example of Jesus Christ throughout their daily lives, in the classroom, and in weekly worship together.
We foster enthusiasm for life-long learning. We support and encourage parents, as the first and foremost educators of their children, to strengthen the intellectual, spiritual, social, physical, emotional, and psychological well-being of each child.
We celebrate the cultural diversity of our community and believe that our respect for each individual will strengthen self-esteem, and regard for others.
It is in this atmosphere that our students and families can learn to bring about dynamic change in the areas of human dignity, freedom, peace, and social justice.
