ST. JOHNS SCHOOL
THE PAROCHIAL school has al

THE PAROCHIAL school has always played an
important role in the educational life of this Island.
When the elementary education extended to what was
the equivalent Of the 9Th or 18th grades, private schools
carried on. Of course, there have always been the Cath
Ole Schools connected with each parish, and these pro-
vided excellent training.
WITHIN THE PAST few years the st. Johns
School has been reactivated and steady and remarkable
growth has marked this establishment. This school is
meeting a distinct need, and providing training which
certainly supplements that being provided by the public
schools. Because it is smaller, this school can gear its
curriculum and its program to fit its students, and pro
vide training which can be taken advantage Of in a
much fuller and more complete way.
THEN THERE is the question Of faculty, which is
alIimportant in any school. The st. Johns School has
this year even expanded and strengthened its faculty.
With all this there is every assurance that this school
will play an even greater and more significant role in
the life Of this town and the island.
IT rs ALSO most appropriate that the bi-centennial
celebration Of this Church should find its school in oper-
alton, after a dormancy Of many years. The school build
ING is in good shape, and as a glance can attest, 1T was
built large enough to meet the needs at the time.
OF COURSE, URING the early part Of the 18th
Century, the churches here, as elsewhere, were provld-
inc the bulk Of the education for its members and the
community as a whole. In fact, nothing is so well
known than that the church was the forerunner Of edu-
cation, the clergy being the most well trained and well
informed in the towns and the parishes.
THE ST. D School is on its way again, and the
community can only wish it will continue.
