My children enjoy attending SJB. The teachers are caring and the facilities are clean! I have been an SJB parent for over 10 years and still believe that we made the right choice for our sons!

We looked all over the city of Chicago to find the right fit for our family and wow did we find it at St. John Berchmans (SJB). The commitment to academic excellence, the focus on developing the "whole child", mind , body and spirt, and the incredible community of staff and parents are what make SJB the best school we could have found for our kids (and us;)). If you live in or around Logan Square, I strongly encourage you to check out SJB.

At SJB he runs right in every day and is excited for school everyday. He is g...

The support my son received at this school came at a crucial time for our family. We were guided and provided with the help we needed. The strong sense of safety and organization at the school is especially valuable to me as a single mother.
