Dear Parent,
Thank you for your interest in St. John Lutheran School! We sincerely appreciate parents who take time to research the educational options available to their children. After all, during the school week, your children will spend at least six hours each day at school…which may be more waking hours than they will spend with you!
During that time, your children will be under the guidance and direction of teachers that have tremendous potential to affect their growth. Selecting the school with which you entrust that responsibility is a great task, and we thank you for considering St. John.
St. John has been providing exceptional Christian education in the Rochester community for over 60 years. Our objective is to provide a quality education in a loving, Christian environment. To that end, we work to guide students in the following facets of their development:
| Spiritual |
Physical |
Emotional |
| Academic |
Social |
Character Building |
Formal schooling is only part of a child’s education. Together with you and your child, we work to contribute to your child’s growth and development. Therefore, St. John Lutheran School exists to:
• Share the Good News of Jesus Christ by providing opportunity for children to study Scripture under the guidance of Christian teachers
• Assist parents in the Christian education of their children, and welcome families into a community of faith and friendship
• Encourage students to respond to God by becoming active in love, prayer, service and worship
• Emphasize excellence in academic subjects, while providing current technology, music, the arts, and physical education as an integral part of their studies
• Create an atmosphere of loving acceptance in which all children will learn to love themselves, and recognize their uniqueness as God’s children, never forgetting how much God loves them
Choosing a school is a big decision ~ one that should be made with a sense of comfort, confidence and reassurance. With that in mind, we invite you to visit our school, take a tour, and see us in action! Furthermore, I would like to offer my availability for any questions you may have, and would welcome the opportunity to meet with you. Please contact our school office at (248) 402-8050 for more information. You can also reach me via email at gkennedy@stjohnrochester.org God’s blessings to you and your family in your decision-making process!
Your Servant in Christ,
Gordon Kennedy
Principal
