Coed Independent Boarding and Day School | Grades 6-12 | Delafield, WI
Since 1884, we’ve guided young people from all over the world toward a life of service and achievement, structuring our approach around four pillars: academic excellence; athletics and wellness; spiritual and character development; and leadership growth. Join us!

Military Academy cadets and Prefect Academy preps use the same campus areas, share many of the same classes, and participate together in athletics and extracurricular activities. Each Academy has its own approach to curriculum and dress, offering a unique St. John’s Northwestern experience.
Small classes. Hands-on learning. Individual guidance. It’s all here, along with Advanced Placement, honors, and dual college credit classes. Personal college coaching helps you explore options and make choices now to support your dreams for the future.
Our spiritual life program guides you in exploring the timeless principles of fairness, integrity, responsibility, and human dignity. Spiritual growth draws upon our Episcopal roots while inclusively respecting all beliefs.
Our varsity teams compete in the Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association (WIAA) Midwest Classic Conference, in more than 15 sports including football, basketball, swimming, soccer, and co-op hockey.
Daily life here is thoughtfully structured to offer a full range of experiences. Innovative learning, exciting athletics, and deepening friendships are all part of your experience as a welcome member of the St. John’s Northwestern community.
