The Sons of the American Revolution Visit SJS

On Monday, Sept. 16th, St. John's School was visited by the Sons of the American Revolution.  Led by Dr. David Langford, our visitors arrived in replicated uniforms worn by American soldiers during the Revolutionary War.  Students had the opportunity to ask many questions to Dr. Langford and his companions.  The portrait is now hanging in the Media Lab.  St. John's School is the first Parochial school to receive this portrait from the Sons of the American Revolution.  It was a fun visit for all!

School Collapse Anniversary


February 6th, 2013 marks the 3 year anniversary of our school collapse. Through adversity has come great opportunity. With God's grace and the support of our wonderful community, we have renovated and rebuilt. We are rejuvenated and ready for many more years of Catholic education!

We will always remember the collapse from 3 years ago. Reminisce and spend some time in prayer thanking God for all the good He has given us. View a slideshow, created by Julie R. to remember this special day.



For more information about our rebuilding, click here.

Two years ago, Donald Cardinal Wuerl came for a special dedication ceremony for our newly rebuilt school. View some video clips, courtesy of David and Terri T. to celebrate the experience.




For more information regarding our school dedication, click here.

We've had a wonderful first couple of years in our new school building. Spend some time viewing our Photo Gallery and Video Testimonials.

May God bless all those who have helped us get to where we are today. Many thanks!
