For
ninety years St. John Chrysostom has
been dedicated to serving the
families of the many immigrant
populations that have found a home
here. We work to provide an
excellent education in a non-violent
milieu. Our Catholic faith is the
foundation of all we do. We welcome
children of many faiths,
nationalities and ethnic
backgrounds. All are respected here.

and the people they did it for. We
have a hundred years of stories
handed down!
