St. John the Apostle Catholic School provides a Christ-centered learning environment, where students are challenged academically, supported spiritually, and are encouraged to embody high ethical standards essential to moral development. SJA faculty and staff are committed to the life long education of our students, not only in traditional academics but also in theology.

Pray: SJA provides a faith-filled foundation ensuring a strong Catholic identity in liturgy, scripture, prayer, sacraments and service. Students are paired with a prayer partner within their assigned faith-family, to help encourage and share their faith journey. Students participate in Mass as lectors, altar guild, choir, and altar servers.

Learn: SJA transforms classroom instruction by implementing 21st century skills. Students in grades 3-8 receive their own Chromebooks and the state-of-the-art technology lab enhances student engagement and achievement.

Grow: SJA creates a nurturing and safe environment that enables students to realize their full potential as lifelong learners. SJA teachers encourage students to recognize the gifts of others and to focus on the needs of the underserved and underprivileged individuals in our local and global communities.
