My overall experience at St. Johns high school is good. There are some teachers who help you out when you need it. There are also teachers who are there for you as more than teacher but they listen to you when you have a genuine concern.

Something that I love about St. Johns is the people. Everyone at St. Johns is friendly and welcoming, and the teachers and staff are easy to talk to. When I am at St. Johns, I am able to feel confident and comfortable. There is almost no bullying, and the students are kind and helpful. I definitely wouldn't go anywhere else
