Welcome to St. John's School and Early Learning Center

We're committed to your family's strongest possible start.

So we partner with families to give their children the start at school they deserve: a place where each child can Grow in their Christian Faith, Excel in their Individual Education, and Thrive in a Vibrant Community.

And we've been doing that for Denver families successfully for over 130 years.
 
 

I Am Growing In My Faith

Our Christian faith is at the heart of all we do. Each St John’s graduate has grown in the love of God, their understanding of His Word, and their ability to approach the curves of life with a Biblical worldview.

I Am Excelling In My Education

Quality teaching is a cornerstone to academic growth. Each student is relentlessly supported and challenged to become better each day, so that they are well-prepared for high school and beyond.

I Am Thriving In My Community

Finding our place in a healthy community is essential for every one of us. Each St. John’s graduate has been immersed in a vibrant network of solid friends, supportive educators, and family-honoring activities.
