Throughout the thirteen-year sequence, our students thrive in an environment that combines challenge with support, work with play, and individual success with the common good.

The St. John's Fine Arts Department Mission is to provide an authentic arts experience, honoring the creative process while providing a foundation of solid technical training while having fun.
The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance.
