Our Teachers
At SJHS, we recognize that private school teachers often earn less than their public school counterparts, with an average salary that’s about 20% lower. But what we lack in salary, we make up for in support, purpose, and professional fulfillment.
We stand up for our educators by fostering a collaborative, mission-driven culture where teachers feel heard, respected, and valued. Unlike many public school settings, where teachers often feel overlooked, SJHS is a place where your voice matters.
