Forged over 129 years, the St. John’s Military School brotherhood spans the globe. Young men from all walks of life, and from across the United States, Mexico, China, and Nigeria form an unbreakable bond with their classmates.
At St. John’s academics are king and designed to stretch the mental abilities of each student. The average cadet improves his GPA by a full point or more after his first semester at St. John’s. More than 90 percent of cadets who graduate from St. John’s go on to institutions of higher learning.
This superior academic performance is a result of a low student to teacher ratio, single-sex, boy-centered education and a structured learning environment. The faculty and staff at St. John’s focus on each cadet as an individual and work to develop the “whole boy.”
St. John’s was recently recognized by AdvancED for two “Powerful Practices.” The first being a strong emphasis on engaging families in their child’s education and social development; and the second being the school’s commitment to ensuring each cadet is supported by at least one adult advocate. Deep ties are formed as your family becomes a part of the St. John’s Family.
