St. John the Baptist has provided me extensive opportunity and support to grow as an individual. I came in being years behind in my studies. I had support from my teachers, guidance and sports coaches who pushed me to become a honor student and are giving me a chance at college and a future.

I have loved my time at St. John the Baptist DHS. It has been an enriching educational experience and lasting friendships. I have enjoyed the activities and SJB pride by classmates, parents and Alumni. I am well-equipped for college and enhanced my experience with access to multiple AP courses and supportive teachers.
