Info
St. John's School (also known as St. John's or SJS) is a coeducational independent day school in Houston, Texas, United States, presenting a 13-year sequence of university preparatory training. The School was founded in 1946 and is a member of the Houston Area Independent Schools, the Independent Schools Association of the Southwest (ISAS), and the Southwest Preparatory Conference (SPC). Though situated adjacent to St. John the Divine church, St. John's claims no religious affiliation. It has been coeducational since its founding and has produced many notable alumni. Noted for its selectivity and academic rigor, St. John's has been described by Forbes.com as one of "America's Elite Prep Schools" and listed by the Wall Street Journal as among schools in the United States with the largest percentages of graduates attending a handful of highly selective universities.
St. John's is a not-for-profit entity and receives no state or federal funding. Tuition for the 2018–2019 school year is $30,515 for Upper School students (grades 9 through 12), $28,800 for Middle School students (grades 6 through 8), and $25,450 for Lower School students (kindergarten through grade 5). Many students receive partial to full need-based scholarships, as the School has a need-blind admissions policy.As of June 2018, SJS's endowment is $78,113,000.
