About St John's School

Objectives of the school

St. John's School was established in 2013 and is administered by the Roman Catholic Diocese of Varanasi, a registered charitable society. Sisters of St. Ann are actively involved in its administration.

St. John's School aims at the education of the Catholic community around and extends its services to members of other communities to the extent possible. The school stands for academic excellence, development of skills, and character formation based on the love of God and the service of mankind as modeled in Jesus Christ, with a view to train citizens remarkable for all-round development and sincere commitment to God and country.

The school is affiliated to the Council for the Indian School Certificate Examination (CISCE), New Delhi (UP462) with 'No Objection' Certificate from the U.P. Government. It prepares students for the ICSE (10-year course). The examination curriculum of the Council adopted by the school includes English, Hindi, Sanskrit, History, Civics, Geography, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and Computer Applications. Hindi is taught from LKG onwards. English is the medium of instruction, communication, and examination in this institution.

St. John's School is a centre of national integration. It believes that a sound moral, physical, and cultural training is as important as academic and scholastic instruction in preparing students for their role in life. Hence, great importance is attached to games, sports, and other extracurricular activities which keep the students mentally alert and abreast of the time.

The school, through various activities, inculcates in students a positive inclination towards upholding social and economic justice, dignity of the individual, irrespective of caste and creed, appreciation of our cultural heritage, and concern for the environment. Through its founding motto 'TRUTH ENLIGHTENS', students are prepared to engage in an ongoing pursuit of knowledge. The fruit of such an endeavor is to get closer to the truth that enlightens, transforms, and liberates a person. Our motto precisely aims at this.
