St. John's School, located in Vancouver, British Columbia offers a university preparatory curriculum for students on the west side of Vancouver. Graduates earn a Dogwood Certificate from the British Columbia Ministry of Education and a St. John's School Graduation Certificate from the school. St. John's School provides a co- and extra-curricular program involving athletics, community service, and the visual and performing arts. Students may also sit for Advanced Placement examinations. St. John's School is accredited by the British Columbia Ministry of Education and is a member of the Canadian Association of Independent Schools (CAIS) and the Federation of Independent Schools Association (FISA).

Calendar

The school year is comprised of three terms. Most courses are linear (year long) in nature. The first term begins the Thursday after the Labour Day weekend and ends at the end of November, the second term from the beginning of December until Spring Break, and the third term from the first day after spring break until mid-June. Senior School students writing provincial examinations will be in school until their examinations are complete at the end of June.

Class Size

Future Expansion

The school is still growing and expects to eventually have about 500 students. To facilitate new students and staff members, new lockers are currently being installed in both male and female bathrooms. The school plans to have classes on the roof of the main school building once the new weather-proofing tarps arrive. Also, plans are in full function for a new school building to be built on land which was purchased recently.
