Our Kindergarten program is based on building a strong foundation and developing a life long love of learning. Religion is taught on a daily basis and is an integral part of our day. The Saint John program is the only Kindergarten in Waunakee to offer Spanish language classes that continue on through 6th grade. We have implemented an updated Science and Math curriculum and look forward to a new and exciting Language Arts curriculum this fall. In addition there are weekly PE, Music, Library and Computer classes. Call today to receive your registration packet or to schedule a personal tour.

Faith in Schools

When we see the cross on the classroom wall, may we always remember the reason our schools of faith exist. For Christ died upon the cross, not for academic excellence, and not for a dress code; not for well-written essays, or for correctly added math problems. Christ died upon the cross for our salvation, and as a model of love for us to follow.

May we remember while learning or teaching, that the most important thing we can learn or teach is not in our textbooks, but instead, is our faith in Christ himself.  Amen
