From the Head of School

Dear Saint John’s High School Community,

It is with great joy and a deep sense of responsibility that I welcome you to Saint John’s High School, a place where academic excellence, spiritual growth, and personal development are at the heart of everything we do. As an all-boys Catholic school in the Xaverian Brothers tradition, we are dedicated to shaping young men of character, intellect, and faith.

At Saint John’s, we are proud of our rich history and the strong foundation laid by the Xaverian Brothers. Their guiding principles - humility, trust, simplicity, compassion, and zeal - serve as the cornerstone of our educational philosophy. Our mission is to foster an environment where young men not only excel in their studies, but also grow as compassionate leaders who will make a positive impact in the world.

Our rigorous academic programs are designed to challenge our students to think critically, act justly, and live with purpose. But we are equally committed to the formation of the whole person - mind, body, and spirit.

Through a broad range of extracurricular activities, service opportunities, and spiritual formation programs, we empower our students to discover their unique talents and develop a deep sense of responsibility to their community and beyond.

As the Head of School, it is my privilege to serve a community of dedicated educators, staff, and families who share in this mission. Together, we provide an environment where young men are encouraged to ask tough questions, grow in faith, and embrace the values of the Xaverian tradition as they prepare for lives of leadership and service.

Thank you for entrusting us with the privilege of accompanying your sons on their educational journey. We look forward to partnering with you in shaping the next generation of men who will carry the legacy of Saint John’s High School with pride, integrity, and a spirit of compassion.

With gratitude,

Dr. Benjamin P. Horgan '05
Head of School
