School: 
 
St. John the Evangelist Catholic School and Parish is a joyfully Catholic community steeped in strong family values, individualized student attention, and love.  Generations of St. John's families have worked together to build a school community that celebrates pre-schoolers to grandparents every single day, but especially through a vibrant Grandparents' club, active PTO, and regular celebrations of the Catholic family.  The incredibly dedicated teachers use pedagogy and curriculum to ensure growth for each and every student, but even more, they love each and every child as a child of God and a member of a very special family – the St. John's community
