St. John the Evangelist School is a Catholic parish school for students in preschool through grade 8. Through a flexible, challenging, and diversified curriculum, our goal is to nurture the academic, spiritual, and physical development of each student.
We guide the children to appreciate the uniqueness of themselves and others, and to celebrate the diversity in our school and beyond. The school’s administration and faculty strive to provide students with a firm moral and academic foundation that helps students succeed in future challenges and become responsible and caring adults.
We welcome the opportunity to give you a tour of our school. Please come, tour the school, meet the principal, and observe classes in session. Find out why we have been named a National Blue Ribbon School. Discover this enthusiastic small community with a large heart which offers a faith-based, academically-challenging education. The preschool (3 & 4 year old full-day and half-day programs), full-day kindergarten, and grades 1-8 will all be featured. For more information, please contact Angela Colburn at 301 681-7656 or [email protected].
