Welcome to St. John the Baptist Catholic School

The first thing to know about St. John the Baptist is that it's full of kids.

SJB is an elementary school with boys and girls in preschool through 8th grade. We have one class per grade, 268 students in all. We are part of a Catholic parish, and we are committed to living as Jesus taught us. To us, this means welcoming non-Catholic students and their families into our community, extending our inclusive attitude and compassion to the classroom, lunch table, and playground. At SJB, there's a feeling of belonging among our students and families. We are proud of our high academic standards and achievements, including our Blue Ribbon distinction. Most of our 8th graders go to Catholic high schools of their choice, and many receive academic scholarships. Our students benefit from top-notch writing and Spanish instruction, technology integration that prepares them for their future, traditions that link them with our past.

We are proud of our students' growth and our trusting partnerships with our supportive families. SJB is where you feel you belong.

In Ondo, Nigeria, children grow up hearing tales of the Deruba Man—a mysterious presence who makes people vanish when go out at night. These types stories are passed down from wise parents and grandparents. Elders tell tales of close calls. But Kemi, Femi, and Tinu, aren’t scared. They make a plan to venture out at night and find the Deruba Man, once and for all. “Surely he could not make all three of us disappear all at once!” says Kemi. Will they find the Deruba Man?

Author Evelyn Logan pairs a love of educational children’s picture books with her Nigerian-American heritage. In this Nigerian children’s book, discover: - shared childhood experiences around the globe:

- Nigerian culture and geography for kids,

- the tradition of African folktales, and

- a glossary of Yoruba words
