Franciscan Education is inspired by vision of St. Francis of Assisi drawn from the life and teachings of Jesus Christ, who has always been respected and admired by the people of India. It is also based on the principles of character formation elaborated by the Founder of Franciscan Society. This vision and these principles give Franciscan Educational Institutions a specific character and set before their staff, students and parents high ideals of humanism and service towards which they are invited continually to strive.

Our objective is to promote the total development of the person so as to be fully human, fully Indian and truly modern. This means the student is open and committed both to the Divine Spirit and his/her fellow human beings. He/she must show this by being actively concerned about national development.

St. John's Public School aims at the integral and personal formation of the young. To accomplish this, special efforts are made :-

• to help students to become mature, spiritually oriented men and women of character.
• to encourage them continually to strive after excellence in every field.
• to value and judiciously use their freedom.
• to be clear and firm on principles and courageous in action.
• to be unselfish in the service of their fellowmen and to become agents of needed social change in their country.
