St. John'S Head Start

We are so pleased with the well rounded education our children are receiving at St. John's Episcopal School. They educate the whole child: mind, body and soul. The teachers are wonderful and the school is a warm and loving environment where any child will flourish. I highly recommend this school!

I am an alumni of Saint John's Episcopal School. My honest opinion is that Saint John's is a great school that not only prepared me for high school but it gave me a second home with a loving community of students, teachers, and more importantly friends. Saint John's curriculum is so high that it sent me into my high school with 3 honors classes and high testing scores. Another reason to love Saint John's is the importance they put into world languages. I learned French as well as perfected my Spanish. Overall, Saint John's is a school you should be talking about because it is a wonderful learning experience.

I am currently a parent and current board member of Saint John's Episcopal School. I have also been a high school English/AVID teacher for the past 20 years in our local public school district. This is my son's 2nd year at Saint John's Episcopal School. I highly encourage you to come and see what the school has to offer your family for the following reasons: 1) As a career advocate for public schools, I was previously concerned about the typical elitist stereotypes one associates with private schools: parents, students, and teachers. I am pleased to report that none of my concerns were valid. 2) In regards to the cost attendance/tuition: a) scholarships are available for those who demonstrate need. b) discounts are available to current parishioners in Episcopal Diocese of San Diego. c) there are several options for paying tuition. 3) The small class size is a huge advantage for the students. The teachers actually get to know them as individuals. My classes typically range from 35-40+. Saint John's Episcopal School aspires to keep the class average at 15 students. 4) Saint John's Episcopal School coordinates numerous coummunity service outreach opportunites every month for all children. All students are well-versed in the importance of helping others. 5) The curriculum is diverse and challenging; including French, Spanish, Art, Music, Religion, PE, Science and plenty of access to instructional technology. 6) Lastly, and most importantly, Saint John's Episcopal School integrates values into their curriculum daily in every hour of every class. The public school system is now doing its best to return to educating the whole child and developing emotional as well as academic intelligence. Given the enormity of each site's student body and the difficulty of recruiting highly dedicated and qualified teachers, this achievement of this objective becomes an impossibility. I appreciate the long history of success graduates of St. John's Episcopal Schools have had in getting accepted to the best high schools and later universities in California and around the world. I am fully confident that my child will add to that legacy. I hope to meet you in person on our campus in the near future.

Teachers are very friendly and good with the children. Office staff very nice. School is clean.

School needs more funding , very inconvenient with having to pick up child almost everyday for no reason , don’t recommend.
