"I was a student at St. Johns for 5 years, and each year it not only prepared me for life, it helped me grow in my faith that has shaped me. I am thankful for all of the memories that St. Johns has given me and I will forever cherish the amazing education I was able to receive. One special memory I have is when I first started school at St. Johns I was very introverted, and I remember the 8th grade class that year had taken me under their wing; because of this I have a few life long friends that are like family. These experiences helped me grow out of my introverted shell and develop many skills as a person. I thank St. Johns for helping shape me into the person I am now and for who I am to be."
