Central Jr High School

My 1st grade student came home in tears, scared and afraid to tell me what was going on at the school. My child had then told me that when students, in the 1st grade, turn in homework late, are made to walk the fence around the playground at recess. This is completely unacceptable and students, especially at this age should not be punished for something as this and not get recess. So many kids come from homes of neglect, and not having their homework on time is sometimes a bigger issue at home that is out of the child's control. I have seen it firsthand working in the school with young children

St. John's is a wonderful school that often doesn’t get the recognition it deserves. With dedicated educators and a strong academic foundation, students are given the tools they need to succeed from an early age. Many children begin reading in Pre-K, setting the stage for a lifelong love of learning. Small class sizes ensure that each student receives the individualized support they need to thrive.Beyond academics, St. John’s also fosters creativity and personal growth through its exceptional music and band programs. Students are introduced to music at an early age, helping to develop discipline, confidence, and teamwork. The school’s commitment to the arts enriches the educational experience and allows students to explore their talents in a supportive environment.While some outside voices may try to influence decisions, St. John’s remains a place where qualified educators lead with expertise and care. The school's well-rounded approach—blending strong academics, music, and a nurturing community—makes it an excellent choice for families seeking a high-quality education.
