St. John Neumann Catholic School was established for the purpose of providing quality private education.
It is a school committed to teaching Catholic faith and values and to help each child acquire skills for personal growth and service to others.
The school offers a curriculum of instruction in the doctrines of the Catholic faith, and provides opportunities for each child to practice that faith in an atmosphere rooted in Christian values.
In keeping with these principles, it manifests the acceptance of every student regardless of religion, race or color.
The goal of St. John Neumann Preschool is to help the child develop skills within the areas of personal and social growth, gross and fine motor development, and perceptual, cognitive and language growth.
These skills are encouraged through a curriculum which includes free play, sharing/show and tell, stories, songs, finger plays, creative art activities, drama, nutrition, science and nature activities.
Shapes, colors, alphabet and numbers are integrated in the preschool curriculum.
We strive to enhance the child's spiritual development, by providing a Christian environment.

We feel blessed to call St. John Neumann our school. Academically our son is challenged and is thriving in all subjects. Socially, SJN is a warm and friendly community we call family. The faculty, staff and administration know all children by name and take an interest in helping each student and family individually. We are especially thankful for the faith based learning and environment. We are right where we want to be!

My experience with SJN has been wonderful. I am impressed with the quality of the overall academic program, the teachers, school administration, and the facility itself. My daughter is consistently engaged and excited to go to school. In addition to learning the basic courses of science, math, and reading/writing, she is also exposed to religion, art, music, and sports. The school administration is organized and communicates well with parents. Overall, SJN is truly focused on the safety and success of all their students!
