St. John The Beloved Catholic School
We, the community of St. John the Beloved, serve in the ministry of Catholic Education for boys and girls in 3 year old Early Childhood through Eighth grades.
Within this full-time learning environment, the faculty fosters worthwhile academic and religious programs, using multiple learning styles and motivational techniques to provide a high standard of quality education.
Integration of learning with faith and service is encouraged to empower children to achieve their potential as children of God whose lives will impact the local and global community.
This process is enhanced by parents, teachers and administrators whose lives are modeled on Gospel values as they teach, search and build community as Jesus did.
Filled with trust in the goodness and love of God, we move forward with joy in the hope of building the earth as God's Kingdom.
