Our mission at John A.

We believe that : - everyone is able to learn - learning through inquiry is beneficial for students - learning and self-esteem are increased when people are in respectful and caring relationships with others who accept them as individuals - each individual is ultimately responsible for his or her own choices and actions - the family plays a significant role in the development of the individual
