St John's Roman Catholic High School is a secondary school in Dundee, Scotland. It was founded early in 1931 by the Marist Brothers, a religious congregation dedicated to education and under the patronage of the Virgin Mary. The school had eight houses named after abbeys in Scotland: Balmerino, Melrose, Jedburgh, Lindores, Paisley, Kelso, Iona and Dunkeld. In July 2011, the House system was streamlined to three: Dunkeld, Jedburgh, and Melrose. And then, as of August 2024, it has been extended to make Balmerino and Lindores houses again, with the former being for the Support for Learners department.
As of 2018, the school has an enrolment of 1,030 students,[1] and although Catholic in outlook, welcomes all religious backgrounds, and none.
