Homecoming
It's Good to Be Home
Homecoming | Saturday, October 21
We're excited to welcome our entire community—students, parents, guardians, alumni, parents of alumni, grandparents, faculty, staff, coaches, and friends—to campus for a day of family, food, fun, and football. This event is for Eagles of all ages to celebrate St. John's and what it means to be a part of the Prep community. We hope you'll join us!
