» The School / Our Staff

Welcome to St. John Lutheran School. For more than 160 years, St. John has offered a quality Christian Education. St. John is a nationally accredited school by the Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod, the largest protestant school system in the U.S. Our sole purpose is to provide a Christian education for children in Early Childhood 3 & 4 year old and Kindergarten through Grade 8.

St. John has ranked in the top _ of all private schools in the eight county Western New York Region for the past 5 years. This past year it was rated #1 in Niagara County by Business First on the NYS Assessments in Math and English.

St. John School is a congregational response to the spiritual, physical, emotional and academic needs of children. The regular daily study of God's Word reminds us that we are sinners and that through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ we are forgiven. We therefore can live a life of joy and peace in knowing we are saved.

Our schools' purpose is to nurture children in their Christian faith and reach out evangelistically to the whole community. We believe that each child is a unique individual in God's eyes and is vitally important in the world in which we live and therefore it is the responsibility of the home an school together to inspire an appreciation of themselves and others.

This website will hopefully answer some of your questions about our school. Please call for more information and schedule a visit. I look forward to hearing from you.
