We welcome author and alumnus Dr.Reese Halter '81 to join us as we discuss his new book:
The Gen Z Emergency
"Reese sets up a conversation with three Gen Z activists, exploring the extinction crisis and the climate crisis, but also the way forward with success stories, strategies for political and colonial change - all the while showing for deep empathy for all life forms on the planet" Steve Payne

SJR is proud to be accredited and affiliated with several local, national and international educational organizations.
St. John’s-Ravenscourt School was founded in 1820 principally to serve the children of the Selkirk settlers. By 1834 there were forty students, evenly split between boys and girls. SJR has inevitably grown and changed over the years since, though its success throughout has been unimpeachable. We have graduated 18 Rhodes scholars, for example, and Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II granted patronage and established a scholarship in her name in 1981. Today the programs are as strong as our reputation. A strong academic program is paired with an equally strong attention to the values of stewardship, ethical leadership, and excellence in all areas of academic, social and athletic life.
