St John the Baptist Catholic School’s curriculum is based on the school’s mission, philosophies, the Minnesota Academic Standards, and the Archdiocesan Religion Standards. Our elementary grades have a strong emphasis on reading, writing, and basic math principles. Your students will be surrounded by kind and loving teachers who encourage and support them in achieving their God-given potential. Teachers work together with parents to help students develop organizational skills and independence in school work. Daily class work and activities give kids the opportunity to ask questions, make mistakes, and become confident young scholars.. Throughout the school day, your child will participate in prayer, learn how to treat others and how to be a shining example of Christ’s love.
