OUR HISTORY

​Saint John the Apostle Parish was established by Archbishop Joseph Hurley of St. Augustine in 1945 with Father Lawrence J. Flynn as its founding pastor. On January 22, 1950 the Most Reverend Thomas J. McDonough, Auxiliary Bishop of St. Augustine, celebrated a Pontifi cal Mass for the blessing and dedication of the school with a chapel-Auditorium, rectory and convent. Since then, we have continued the legacy that the Sister's of Mercy established over 70 years ago. Since then, we have become fully accredited through the Florida Catholic Conference and are Certified VPK and Child Development Services Provider. We have also qualified for the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) providing free breakfast & free or reduced lunch for all of our students. Throughout the years, we have modernized our campus by providing school wide Wi-Fi for our 1:1 iPad program that begins in the 3rd Grade.
