St Johns doesn’t have many different learning styles what it hais Catholic parents that want that type of schooling .

College admits from St Johns are way below public

Great your kid got an education in Catholicism more than a secular great education

If that’s what you want for your kid more power to you.


Yes, isn’t it great parents have these choices? You can send your kids to a school you like even if other parents make a different choice

And wouldn’t it be great if every private school had a program like SJC’s Benilde, for students with learning differences? It’s really popular. Does your child’s school have a structured program for students with LDs?


The Benilde program is similar to scholars in that the student takes regular classes along with the rest of the student population. It is not a specially developed program with specific classes or teachers for what it's worth. A friend just went through the application process and decided the GC Ryken program was much stronger. Honestly, SJC's Scholars and Benilde programs feel like label slapping to me.


We know families with kids in both Benilde and Ryken programs, and they are very pleased. These programs are for smart, motivated students with mild learning differences like ADHD who are getting the structure and support needed to reach their full potential. I've heard nothing but good things about these programs. I wish every school, private and public, had such a program, and that the programs started in younger grades, and that they could accept all the students that need them.
