St. John Neumann Regional Academy strives to provide a comprehensive, rigorous academic course of study to prepare young people for their future endeavors in college, the workplace, trade school or the military. We constantly review our programs to ensure that they are staying true to the traditions of a classic, liberal arts, Catholic education, while still maintaining the flexibility to meet the ever-changing demands of our population in an ever-changing society.
Our education is intended to challenge our students intellectually while, at the same time, providing to them a framework for living. While seeking answers to who, what and where, we lead students to the deeper question of why. We are ever cognizant that the mystery, the beauty, the opportunity and the history of our civilization and our world are meaningless if separated from the acknowledgement that they each illuminate the workings of an All-powerful and loving God, who seeks to know His creation intimately. Life, with meaning. Exploration, with context. Excellence, with gratitude.
Within this section you will find the "what" of our academic program. We invite you to join our family and journey with us as we grow in love of, and service to, the "who" of our existence.
All students at the Elementary level receive a well-rounded education that includes daily instruction in Math, Science, Social Studies, English, Reading, Writing and Religion. Also included is Physical Education, STREAM (Science, Technology, Religion, Engineering, Art and Mathematics), Art and Music. We have SmartBoards in all classrooms, and implement use of the Ipads and tablets as a teaching and learning tool.
Grades PreK through 2nd are self-contained. Grades 3, 4 and 5 rotate classrooms and have a variety of teachers throughout the day.
Students in our PreK program receive a strong foundation in learning, as our curriculum is focused on Kindergarten preparedness. The young students blossom in our care, as they are educated to know and appreciate the love of God in their lives. We have a PreK program for 3 year olds and 4 year olds. We have three day PreK program which is in session on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays, and a five day PreK program. All PreK students must be fully potty trained. We will accept PreK students throughout the school year once they turn the appropriate age. For example, if your child's third birthday is December 1, s/he is welcome to join our PreK-3 room (if we have availability) anytime after December 1. Tuition will be pro-rated depending on start date.
Our school day begins at 7:55 a.m. and ends at 2:40 p.m. Students may be dropped off as early as 7:30 a.m. Aftercare is available until 5:30 p.m. for a separate fee.
Prayer begins and ends each day and each class. We attend mass every other week at St. Boniface Church.
