Jamshedpur, Oct 1: St. John’s High School celebrated its Foundation Day with great enthusiasm, showcasing its legacy as an emerging educational hub. The event, ‘Future Ready Youngsters’ was marked by a series of cultural performances, competitions, and exhibitions that highlighted the school’s commitment to holistic education.

The celebrations began with a tribute to the school’s founder, G. Francis, who established the institution in 1958 with just three students in Sidhgora. She had a vision to uplift the lower and middle classes, and her relentless dedication led the school to shift to the Bengal Club premises in 1964.
