Upper School
Passions Found, Purpose Lived
At St. Johns, we know that “college prep” means so much more than challenging academics. It means developing young adults who can think deeply and analyze critically, who have a love of learning and yearn to apply their knowledge in collaboration with others. By the time they're in Upper School, students are diving deep into areas of interest via our unique Fellowships program, working independently in our 3D Technology & Innovation lab, winning speech contests, excelling in world language competitions, and creating diverse, award-winning portfolios in art. In each endeavor, Upper School students demonstrate a deep understanding of both our liberal arts curriculum and the world around them, where they thrive as scholars, friends, and leaders.
St. Johns Fellowships are exciting programs designed to help students explore opportunities in their chosen area of interest. A St. Johns Fellowship provides practical experience, learning, and networking. St. Johns Fellows work with a qualified Fellowship Advisor who will provide guidance, connections, and leadership.
Serving Others
At St. Johns, we believe in empowering students to make a difference. Sponsored by Rotary International, the Upper School Interact Service Club embodies the motto: “He profits most who serves best.” Through weekly meetings and monthly service projects, students have the opportunity to impact both their local and global communities.
Student leadership also drives school spirit. The Student Council is dedicated to enhancing campus life by planning spirit weeks, friendly competitions, and homecoming events, ensuring that every Upper School student feels engaged and connected.
At St. Johns, service and leadership go hand-in-hand — inspiring students to lead with heart and purpose.
Leaders of Today
and Tomorrow
At St. Johns, leadership is a way of life. Whether in the classroom, on stage, or around campus, Upper School students lead by example, demonstrating that doing the right thing is simply the Spartan norm. They step up in both small and large group settings, understanding that their words and actions carry meaning — shaping a positive and respectful community.
The unique atmosphere created by our students can’t easily be described — but those who experience it know it’s something special.
