You are part of a distinguished legacy spanning an impressive 138 years, a testament to unwavering commitment and excellence. Since its establishment in 1887, St. John’s College has stood proudly alongside the people of Belize, serving as a beacon of hope and a pillar of education. Our institution provides a Jesuit education that not only cultivates the intellect of our students but also nurtures their hearts and souls, instilling values that resonate throughout their lives.
From our humble beginnings as an all-boys high school located in the vibrant heart of Belize City, we have evolved significantly over the decades. The establishment of our Junior College in 1952 marked a pivotal moment in our journey, allowing us to expand our reach and offer more comprehensive educational opportunities to our community. Most recently, the inauguration of our University in 2023 represents a monumental milestone in our history, further solidifying SJC's reputation as a leader in academic excellence and moral development. Our commitment to providing a holistic education remains steadfast, ensuring that our students are well-prepared to face the challenges of the modern world.
