St. John Neumann Academy

I have two sons that went to this school from Kindergarten through 8th grade. They both absolutely LOVED SJNA. I can't say enough about the warm, loving environment and the smart and caring staff. My children received a top-notch education (way ahead of the game as they entered public high school) and they spent each day in a Christ-centered environment. We have always felt like the faculty, students, and families at SJNA are part of one big family. Best school in the NRV!

This is our daughter`s first year at SJNA and we have been very impressed with the staff and the school. SJNA provides a warm and attentive learning environment for our child. We love the focus on academic excellence, good behavior, and virtues. Small class sizes, first rate facilities, and dedicated teachers mean that our daughter is very happy at the school.

We transferred to SJNA from a local public school mid-semester. SJNA school is calm and structured, the teachers are kind and devoted, and the curriculum is rigorous. Before we transferred, my child cried every day before going to school, acted out at home, and refused to tell me anything about the school day. Ever since she started at SJNA, she is like a new person. She is happier, communicates more, and her behavior has improved. I am thankful every day for this school, and recommend it highly.

I'm actually a grandparent. My granddaughter attended St. John Neumann Academy (SJNA) as a preschooler in the school year that just ended. She will move on to kindergarten there for the the 2016-2017 school year. SJNA combines the academic, spiritual, service and social aspects of education in a way that enables its students to grow and flourish. I highly recommend SJNA to all parents in the New River Valley area.

There are not enough words to say how wonderful this school is. My daughter had the privilege to attend this school for 4 years. The absolute only reason she is not going to be there this year is because of our family will be moving. The teachers and all the staff, along with the parents, at this school are wonderful! I have nothing negative to say about SJNA at all. The school is extremely family oriented and everyone knows everyone. The children are all wonderful, especially the upper school children. They are constantly interacting with the lower school children. During drop off and pick up, the upper school kids are so polite and so so nice to the younger kids. Not to mention the student/teacher ratio. It is overall the best school in this area, and the best school I have ever seen. We love SJNA and if we happen to come back to the area there is no doubt that my child will be welcomed back as if she never left. SJNA will always hold a special place in my heart. They did so much for my daughter and I. We will miss them very much!

I can not say enough about this school. I will keep it short. This school is AMAZING. The teachers and faculty truly care about the social and academic development of the students. My son was accepted to two VERY competitive high schools after taking entry tests. I know this is because of the rigorous academics he had at St. John Neumann Academy. The teachers teach to individual student needs. They have a very low student/teacher ratio. I LOVE this school.

Hands down the best school for my children. The small class sizes allow the teachers to really get to know their students.This allows them to work on students strengths and weaknesses. There are reading buddies programs and school activities that encourage the older students to mentor the younger ones. Parents are always encouraged to be involved with the school.
