Saint John School is happy to announce that Mr. Robert Fanning will be joining us as our Interim Principal for the remainder of the 2019 – 2020 school year.  Bob is a seasoned educator with a breadth of administrative experience across all grade levels, most recently at Westwood High School, where he ran the Special Education program for many years.  In Westwood, Bob was known for his integrity, and for the many hours that he dedicated to his job.  Among Bob’s other strengths are the ability to work collaboratively with both faculty and parents. In addition, Bob is actively involved with St. Thecla’s Parish in Pembroke and Holy Family Parish in Duxbury, where he is a religious education teacher and a member of the Parish Pastoral Council. Bob’s first day at Saint John School will be Monday, February 24.

Saint John School serves children in Preschool (age 2.9) through Grade 6. Our talented and dedicated faculty and staff are committed to the education of the whole child.

At Saint John School, our children receive a top quality education rooted in the beauty and values of our Catholic faith. We are the perfect size – a school small enough to know every student well but big enough to offer everything our students could dream of and more.
