Since 1882, St. John the Baptist Catholic School has had a rich tradition of educating children in a positive, child-centered environment. Our PreK-6th grade curriculum is designed to instill academic success and to foster and awareness of each student's personal talents and gifts. Our school climate reflects a Catholic atmosphere and demonstrates the commitment of our parish and experienced teaching staff in promoting active learning and the discovery of values. The first choice for parents is our two or three day morning prekindergarten program. The classroom is a happy, energetic place where children learn to work and play together in a secure, Christian environment.
Children enjoy daily snacks, share-time and community outings.
Kindergarten St. John's half day morning or full day kindergarten classes allow parents to choose the program that's right for their child. Kindergarten is an exciting, busy time where young students are introduced to art, language arts, math, reading readiness, religion and various enrichment activities. St. John's students receive a quality education with the advantage of small class sizes, and have consistently scored above average on standardized test. Along with the primary studies, all students in grades PreK-6 enjoy a modern computer lab with supervised internet access, a fully computerized library and a newly renovated gym. Fifth and sixth grade boys and girls also have the opportunity to participate in band and basketball programs.
