About Us

 

A Catholic school education is the starting point on the path to a lifetime of accomplishment for your child. It is a sound investment in a valuable education, and an education in values. The curriculum, programs and extracurricular activities in Catholic schools help broaden a student's interests, build confidence, and teach self-discipline.

St. John Catholic School is proud to provide children and parents the tools they need to be successful and enriched in the spirit of Christ.

 

Educating the Total Child

St. John Catholic School is dedicated to the development of each student's academic excellence, physical well being, moral strength and spiritual convictions in a Christian atmosphere. Students will acquire the essential knowledge to love and serve God in every aspect of earthly life: the family, the community and the Church.  We strive to educate hearts and minds through regular opportunities for prayer, worship, service, religious education, and value formation.

 

Our History

For nearly a half Century St. John School has been providing a solid academic and spiritual foundation which has led a pathway for many of our students to be accepted into the honors programs in high schools, earn College scholarships and enter the world rooted in God’s Holy Word and Jesus Christ’s teachings thanks to a small handful of inspired Catholic Nuns.

On September 15,1958 five Catholic Sisters of the Order of Resurrections opened the doors of the first Catholic School in Bay county.  When the school opened there were 132 students in grades 1-5.  Each succeeding year a new grade was opened and by 1962 it had expanded to provide middle school grades.

St. John Catholic School remains located today in a quiet residential neighborhood two blocks from beautiful St. Andrew Bay.   The Sisters have retired and passed on but left a legacy rich in Roman Catholic Teaching and academic excellence for our Degreed and State Certified Teachers to build upon and help each child reach his or her full potential in this new Millennium.

Today St. John has nearly 200 students in grades K-4-8th grade. Small classroom sizes provide safe learning environments. Our Campus offers a new state of the art Library and computer room, science lab, art room, and  music room. The entire campus is networked and equipped with computers.  We are  currently preparing for the groundbreaking of a new gymnasium and the Golden Anniversary celebration of St. John School.

Community Service

Just as the founders of St. John School served God and the community the tradition is passed on to our students, faculty, and families who share their gifts of time, talent and treasure in countless ways.  Our students participate in community service by reaching out and providing items and food to the less fortunate in Bay County, victims of natural disasters, the hungry, the elderly, children of war torn countries, and our military personnel serving around the world.
