    St. John’s College High School was a great experience for me. The community is vibrant and welcoming to all, and there is always something exciting going on. St. John’s is an athletic power house, to say the least. The school is filled with serious athletes who work hard to bring glory to our school’s name, and students are always attending games and other sporting events! The teachers, just like the student athletes, are hardworking. They are always there for students to give advice and offer assistance with their studies, along with preparing the students for college and the challenges life will throw their way. There is truly no school like St. John’s, and I would absolutely recommended my high school to anyone!

    I am going to be a senior at St. John's and can say I love my experience at St. John's College High School! Choosing to go there was honestly the best decision of my life! Going there introduced me to the Jesus story, new friends, new thoughts, ideas, and offered an amazing learning environment. Not to mention that our athletics are amazing! If I were to change anything, it would be to add a worshipping class. That seems like an odd request, especially since I'm not the most religious person. But I truly believe that creating a worshipping class would allow students a chance to take a breather and develop their relationship with Jesus, in silence and through prayer. Overall, my experience at St. John's has been an amazing one, and I'm proud to be able to say I am a cadet!
    I had two children go through SJC! When I sent them there, I was hoping that they would enjoy the experience. Both were involved in sports, clubs and student government. Many times they would stay after school to work one on one with a teacher or to study with a friend. This created a tremendous amount of enthusiasm for the school because after studying, they would watch soccer or field hockey or cheer on some other team. The hardest part was getting them to come home. Both are in college now and look back fondly on their time spent at SJC. The new improvements in the facilities and seeing their teachers and administrators at games when they are home just drives home the point that no matter where they go...they will always be Cadets.
