About St. John the Baptist High School & Junior College

This impressive School building was the foresight of  Rev. Fr. Pascal D'Souza. With his long stay in the U.S.A. he worked to give a try to the broad based American system of education. The growing nature of this institution urged him to convince his superiors, as to the urgent necessity of having an elegant and spacious building,  with modern amenities to house the   St. John's School . The stately three storeyed building, with wings spread out to the right and left, capped by an open air terrace, sprang up within a period of two and a half years. Thanks to the ardent and vigilant supervision of Rev. Fr. Pascal and the efforts of eminent architect Mr. Vyom Keshav of "Studio Arch".

Main Building
 
Rev. Fr. Pascal was not destined to give the final touches to it. He collapsed due to a massive heart attack. His remains rest on the vast School campus. Rev. Fr. Valerian Godinho stepped into the shoes of Fr. Pascal. His first task was to give the finishing touches to the school building. He worked day in and day out for its completion and got the students accommodated comfortably in the new building in the year 1966.
