For nearly 60 years, members of the St. John's community have stood together to build an institution that provides the highest standard of education. St. John's students have always enjoyed a special relationship with teachers, who inspire students to reach their fullest potential. They leave St. John's with an understanding of the individual's responsibility to society as well as a first rate academic education. Thanks to the generosity of those who have come before us, St. John's students continue to learn from some of the most knowledgeable and dedicated teachers in the country and to benefit from one of the best educational programs in the country.

To continue this excellent education, St. John's relies on contributions from alumni, parents, grandparents, parents of alumni and friends. As an independent school, St. John's operates without financial support from local, state and federal governments. Tuition does cover many of our expenses, but not all. We rely heavily on a strong Annual Fund and endowment income to maintain operations and balance the School's budget. Friends of St. John's support the school with contributions to facilities and endowment projects, as well as through outright gifts, bequests and other estate gifts.

For more information on supporting St. John's through the Annual Fund, gifts to capital projects or the endowment, or for information about including St. John's in your will, please contact Mark Dini, Director of Advancement at 713-850-0222 ext. 220.
