1Peter 3:15
But set Christ apart as Lord in your hearts and always be ready to give an answer to anyone who asks about the hope you possess, yet do it with courtesy and respect.

The St. John Learning Center has over 13,000 items for students, faculty and parents to use for pleasure reading and research. The Center is open daily for checkout and for scheduled classes. All St. John Classes from Pre-School and Pre-Kindergarten through Fifth grade are scheduled weekly in the library for planned activities. Sixth, Seventh and Eighth grade students are scheduled at various times during the school-year for specific programs.

The St. John Learning Center supports the overall mission of the school by assisting students to be effective and independent users of information and by helping them to develop a life-long appreciation of literature. Literature appreciation is encouraged through read-alouds, book talks, story telling as well as through author and illustrator studies. Library skills and research skills are encouraged through hands-on practice and curriculum integration.

In addition to a well equipped computer lab on the first floor and a mobile cart with laptops, there are four new networked computer stations in the Learning Center for student use. These stations are used for Quick Search Library, online research, e-Library, and for taking Accelerated Reader Quizzes.
