I take it as a great privilege to present the Annual Report of St. Johns Public School (CBSE).The school, during the current academic year has added several feathers to its cap. We are proud of our students and teachers who strive hard beyond expectation. We have a lot of good news and stories to share, our students have done creditably well, not only in academics but in co-curricular activities too.

St. Johns Public School has completed 13 years of its successful journey. St. Johns Public school was granted Affiliation on 23rd October by Central Board of Secondary Education, New Delhi with its   Affiliation No – 1130895.

It is hard for an institution to survive in the present scenario. A rose doesn’t invite anyone to enjoy its fragrance, but its natural, pleasant, sweet smell attracts people to it. Parents are attracted to St. Johns Public School by its ethics, vision and more over the mission that we materialise here. We ensure inclusiveness and believe in setting standards. Empowerment of our teachers remains our key success mantra. 

Pablo Picasso said that ‘What one does is what counts and not what one had the intention of doing”.  The legacy of St. Johns Public School (CBSE) cannot be written without bowing our heads in reverence and gratitude to our founder Rev. Fr. Pious Gonsalves. It is the universal love for the humanity that we enjoy greater freedom and happiness
