Instruct a child in the way he should go, when he grows old, he will not leave it. (Proverbs 22:6)

In addition to providing a high quality education backed by a disciplined atmostphere for learning, a student in a Catholic school is able to learn within a community of faith formed by our relationship as brothers and sisters of Jesus Christ.

The security of learning in such a loving environment in which families are intimately involved is a wonderful gift to children. It is a gift that helps them to accept and love their faith and to know with greater certainty the love of God for them.

—Father James Benton

Students at St. John the Apostle Catholic School have their hands full—and they love it.

Prayer, religion classes and Mass are a part of each student's day. The goal at St. John the Apostle School is to prepare children to live a Christian life, building the Kingdom of God here and for eternity.

Smaller class sizes allow teachers to give one-on-one attention to students. This support, encouragement and discipline boost a child's confidence.

Extra-curricular activities, music, computer and sports programs enhance the strong academic programs.

At St. John the Apostle School, there is a strong sense of community between teachers, students, parents and the parish. With God at the center, this team uses love and discipline to challenge students to excel in the classroom and in life.
