A Giving Community
|
Fifty-five years ago the determination of a few families created St. John’s School. Their passion for excellent education on Guam has been shared by generations of families who have loved and supported our school. The individuals who will lead St. John’s through its second fifty years must be equally committed to that legacy of excellence.
If you share St. John’s passion for impacting the lives of future Knights, there are many ways for you to stay involved. Currently a major renovation project for our gym is essential. We are asking that our school family, our alumni, and our community support us as we work to renew a building that has served us for so long. Please join us in this endeavor by clicking the "Donate" button below.

Terry Reffell Scholarship
Dear St. John’s Friends:
I am grateful to Mrs. Leslie Crouthamel, a former board member, and her daughter Lauren Guth, a 2008 graduate, for their proposal to establish a scholarship in honor of Ms. Terry Reffell, who passed away in January. As you know, Terry was an amazingly
talented artist and a dedicated St. John’s teacher. We miss her terribly, and deeply appreciate the creation of this timeless tribute. I think Terry would be delighted that new students will be able to attend St. John’s through her name.
Please see the message from Lauren below, and contact me to lend your support.
Thank you.
Pat Bennett

Hafa Adai,
We would like to initiate a memorial scholarship fund for incoming middle school students in the name of Ms. Terry Reffell. She was an integral part of the art community at St. John's School and so important to many staff members and students past and present. We hope her passion for art can live on at the school. She is greatly missed.
Please pass this message along to anyone that you think would like to participate.
Interested contributors can address Ms. Pat Bennett at:

STEWARDSHIP & SUPPORT FOR OUR SJS STUDENTS
|
We appreciate the day-to-day contributions faculty and staff have already made to help provide rich, life-changing experiences for our St. John's School students. Extending your contributions to include philanthropy is another way to show your stewardship for the school, and your beliefs in the St. John's mission, the work we do, and most importantly, in the students we educate.
Over the past few years, we have worked hard to ensure that we live within our means, paying for all school operations with our tuition income. While tuition takes care of today, planning for future growth relies on the generosity of our school community. |
|
As we begin a new annual giving campaign, we turn first to our faculty and staff members to build a base for support. If each of us pledges even a small amount, we demonstrate to our families that St. John’s School means more to us than a job. We impact the future. We show our students, parents, and alumni that we believe in our school.
WAYS TO GIVE
CAPITAL GIVING
Improvements and expansion to the school’s facilities are ongoing priorities because our facilities must continue to provide the environment and tools necessary to fulfill the school's program objectives. Giving designated for facilities improvements and expansions are considered capital gifts.

ENDOWMENT GIVING
Endowment giving is an important measure of our strength as a school. The income generated by endowments provides added resources to strengthen academic programs, award more generous financial aid, and maintain and update our facilities.

SCHOLARSHIPS/TUITION ASSISTANCE
It is our vision that all students who are accepted by St. John's School will not be turned away simply from an inability to pay for tuition. Scholarships are critical to providing need-based aid to qualifying students. Scholarship giving can be designated towards the scholarship program that will be combined with other gifts to ensure that those who yearn for an excellent education can come and learn at St . John's School.
