Principal's Welcome
Greetings from St. John's Academy (SJA) Vancouver! We are excited that you interested in learning more about our accelerated academic program.
At SJA we are in the business of much more than providing a high-quality secondary education - we are in the business of training and equipping the leaders of tomorrow by transforming our local community through service and community engagement.
At SJA our core programming focuses on the three key themes: identity (identity formation, self-awareness, and goal-setting), belonging (roles and responsibilities, clubs, inclusive classroom environments) and impact (service, community engagement, and alignment with the UN sustainable development goals).
We take the support and development of our students seriously. We believe all students are capable of learning, improvement, and producing high-quality work and we match these high-expectations with the requisite support.
​
Most importantly, we have created a school in partnership with our students. We believe that students need to be actively engaged in co-creating a positive school culture.
​
Our guarantee to all our students and families is that we will care for and encourage your child while also nudging them along in developing their self-reliance and confidence through strong community connection and belonging. We hope to have the privilege to support and encourage your child in the future.
​
Sincerely,
​​
