The illustrious hundred-year history of one of New England's most prominent Catholic secondary schools comes to life in Far Above the Neighboring Hilltops, celebrating the founding of St. John's Preparatory School in Danvers, Massachusetts in 1907. With 225 images from the school's archives, this will be a must read for the nearly ten thousand living graduates of St. John's (80 percent of whom live in New England, many of them north of Boston), as well as countless thousands of others who share a proud connection to The Prep as students, athletes, parents, grandparents, faculty, staff, and friends. Far Above the Neighboring Hilltops is a fascinating look at the Prep's history, including the Xaverian Brothers who founded the school, its fifteen headmasters, legendary sports teams, and remarkable growth from one building and sixty students, to a classic New England campus with eight buildings, twelve hundred students (from ninety cities and towns north and west of Boston), and an impressive record of achievement in academics, arts, athletics, and Christian service.
