Background

History

St. John's was founded as ''St. John's College'' by the Jesuits in 1898 in downtown Toledo, at 807 Superior St. Built in 1899 and 1909, it was demolished in 1976 and 1978. It was a liberal arts college with a business administration program and a law school that subsequently became a foundation unit of the current University of Toledo College of Law. Before the shuttering of the college, the Jesuits had purchased property near what is now Gesu church and school, until recently a

Christian Service

One of the goals of a Jesuit education, found in the St. John's Mission Statement, is educating "men-for-others" (taken from a 1973 address by the Rev.

Pedro Arrupe Pedro Arrupe Gondra, SJ (14 November 1907 – 5 February 1991) was a Spanish Basque priest who served as the 28th Superior General of the Society of Jesus from 1965 to 1983. He has been called a second founder of the Society, as he led the Jesui ...

). As a result, St. John's focuses its education on the "whole person", instilling the values of service in its students. All high school students are required to complete a service project of varying hours in order to pass three of the four compulsory theology courses; Academy students have a similar requirement. The high school also has a Christian Service department that sends students into the greater Toledo area to do service work throughout the school day. This program also organizes on-campus events for inner-city school children such as the annual Easter and Christmas on campus.

The opposite side of the shield presents the bands of Ignatius' maternal family.

House system

In the 2008-2009 year the "house" system was introduced to the high school with eight houses: each student is put into a house and the eight houses compete. There are "house days" with competition in things varying from basketball, to video games, to tug of war. Points are also rewarded for things like overall GPA, overall behavior, performance in sport and fun activities, and school spirit. At the end of the year a winning house is announced. The house system ended in 2016, and was replaced by the Student Life Office.

but study primarily in their own private wing. Often, students take some of the requisite high-school courses in the academy before enrollment in the High School, enabling them to take more AP courses at the end of their high-school study. The academy has a budding sports, music, and art program. The students attend all Masses and Prayer Services with the High School.
