St. John's High School Chikwaka was founded on the belief that education is a shared responsibility — between teacher and learner, school and home, faith and ambition. What began as a small rural school has grown into an institution known across the district for the discipline and warmth of its graduates.
Today we combine academic, technical-vocational and entrepreneurial learning under one roof, using modern ICT tools to keep pace with a changing world, while holding firmly to the values that have carried us since 1972: integrity, respect, discipline, faith, and excellence.
