As I am progressing through my first year of college, I have already made many new memories. However, I still hold the ones from St. John's Prep highly in my heart. Without the prep experience, then I wouldn't be where I am right now.

Mr Weidenaar introduced both of our boys to computer science and made it fun and interesting! He created a spark for each of them! The computer science program at the prep is unlike any in our area. My oldest will graduate in 2025 as a computer science major and has secured a great job as a computer engineer. My other son is also pursing a major in computer science. He took 6 classes at the prep which prepared him for his classes at college. Mr Weidenaar also makes himself available to talk even after you graduate! He is amazing!

Joan was the first SJP person we encountered in admissions. She patiently walked us through the process and was simply amazing. I am not sure we would have landed at SJP without her willingness to help. She exemplifies all the great qualities the teachers, staff and coaches have at SJP. A willingness to give their time, show they care, and want you to succeed. She is simply amazing!!

There are many terrific people on staff at the Prep but Nathan wanted to honor Ty Bramer and Pamela Leete this Giving Tuesday. In Nathans words, Pamela looks out for others and has an inspiring persona for the students as she is an uplifting force for the boys.

As a proud parent, today I want to share my deepest thanks to the incredible faculty and staff of St. John’s Prep. This community has truly shaped my son Max’s journey in ways I can’t put into words.

A special shoutout to Jason Larocque, his Associate Principal in the middle school, whose leadership and care have made such a difference in Max’s experience. Dr. Hardiman, our Head of School, and Dr. Crowley, Associate Head of School/Principal, your vision and dedication to excellence create an environment where students thrive academically, spiritually, and personally.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for all that you do for our family and so many others. St. John’s is more than a school; it’s a community and I couldn’t be more grateful to be a part of it all.
