"St. John Berchman’s School has the best Catholic education in Shreveport. We also have outstanding staff members with an incredible student family. We have a superior S.T.R.E.A.M. curriculum, and we value our acts of service throughout all ages. All and all, SJB is the best choice of K3-8th schools in all of Shreveport."

"St. John's is active in the faith formation of students. We appreciate how the middle school team of teachers coordinate with one another to always incorporate religion into each core subject lessons, whenever possible."

"I have been a teacher at SJB for 25 years, most of that time in first grade. The most amazing thing about SJB is that we strive to educate the entire child--socially, emotionally, spiritually, and academically. My greatest joy to date was when a student with academic challenges came to me to tell me that she was all grown up, learning to make good choices, happy, and thankful for her time at St. John Berchmans!"

"Why do people like St. John Berchmans so much? I like St. John Berchmans, because of the friendships I have made, the classes, the activities, and the amazing teachers. Without all of these things, SJB would not be the school I know and love!"

"This will be our third year at SJB. We have loved everything about the school, from the teachers, administration and Father Peter's involvement with the students. Our daughter has received a well rounded education and continues to thrive at SJB. From the moment you walk through the doors you and your child will feel welcomed and accepted by all. Kindness is truly practiced here!"

"I joined the St. John Berchmans family only a year ago, and I honestly can say that I have my dream job working alongside some incredible teachers who all absolutely love their jobs and are dedicated wholeheartedly to making an impact on these children’s lives. Catholic education has always had a special place in my heart, as I am an alumna myself. I know that this is the exact school environment that I can only hope my own kids are surrounded with one day. SJB is definitely one of a kind!"
