What St. John Vianney Catholic School Colegio Bilingüe does

St. John Vianney Catholic School (Colegio Bilingüe) is a private, non-profit Catholic school operating under the Diocese of Orlando at 6200 S Orange Blossom Trail, Orlando, Florida. Founded on January 25, 1962, it serves students from Voluntary Prekindergarten (VPK) through 8th grade and was recognized as a National Blue Ribbon School in 2005. The school employs approximately 50+ staff across its 21-room campus and is led by Principal Ms. Solinsky and Assistant Principal Mrs. Rivera, with parish clergy Rev. Francisco J. Ojeda and Rev. Romil Aperocho providing ecclesiastical oversight.

The school's core product is its dual language immersion program, providing 50/50 English-Spanish instruction from PreK4 through 8th grade, with a stated goal of full bilingualism and biliteracy by 2027. In 2017, SJVS became the first dual language school in the Diocese of Orlando through partnerships with Boston College's Two Way Immersion Network for Catholic Schools (TWIN-CS) and the University of Central Florida. The academic core is supplemented by a STREAM curriculum (Science, Technology, Religion, Engineering, Arts, Math), sacramental preparation (First Communion, Confirmation), and enrichment modules including ALPHA before/after care, Summer Camp, Catholic Youth Sports athletics, Band, Choir, Drama, and the National Junior Honor Society. Technology integrations are limited to standard K-12 platforms (RenWeb/FACTS for SIS and tuition, IXL, Accelerated Reader, McGraw-Hill, Studies Weekly, Sora, Britannica School, Nutrislice).

Revenue is generated through a hybrid model: recurring tuition across PK3-8 grade tiers, Florida VPK state voucher funding (free half-day VPK), an Annual Giving Campaign (target $35,000), donations and planned giving, and modest one-time sacramental materials fees ($75 each for First Communion and Confirmation). Distribution is community/parish-led through the RenWeb online portal, by-appointment campus tours, Catholic Schools Week, and the St. John Vianney Catholic Church parish network. The school accepts Step Up for Students scholarships and is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization.

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• Lake Highland Preparatory School: Larger, established private K-12 school in Orlando competing for the same premium private education families. While non-Catholic, it competes for enrollment dollars in the Orlando market with a broader academic portfolio.
• Central Florida Catholic Schools (Diocese of Orlando network): The Diocese of Orlando Office of Schools oversees 12 Catholic schools across Central Florida. As the governing umbrella that includes SJVS and its 11 peer schools, this diocesan system sets curriculum standards, hosts CYS athletics, and represents the broader institutional peer set.

Regional players

• Bishop Moore Catholic High School: Diocese of Orlando Catholic high school that serves as a natural feeder for SJVS graduates. Operates in the same geographic market and diocesan network but at the 9-12 grade level, making it a complementary rather than directly competing peer.

Emerging players

• Two Way Immersion Network for Catholic Schools (TWIN-CS) member schools: The Boston College TWIN-CS network includes Catholic schools nationwide pursuing dual language immersion programs. Other member schools (e.g., schools in Boston, Houston, Los Angeles) represent the closest programmatic peers to SJVS's unique dual language model.

Direct peers

• Holy Family Catholic School (Orlando): A fellow Diocese of Orlando Catholic school serving K-8 students in the Orlando metropolitan area. Competes directly for Catholic families in the same geographic market and participates in the same CYS athletic league, making it the closest comparable peer for SJVS.
• St. Andrew's Catholic School (Orlando): Diocese of Orlando K-8 Catholic school in the Orlando metro area. Direct competitor for Catholic families seeking faith-based K-8 education with similar tuition-based revenue model and diocesan oversight.
• St. James Cathedral School (Orlando): Another Diocese of Orlando Catholic K-8 school in the Orlando metro area. Competes for similar Catholic families and operates under the same diocesan governance and CYS league participation as SJVS.
• Good Shepherd Catholic School (Orlando): Diocese of Orlando Catholic K-8 school competing in the same Orlando metropolitan market. Similar enrollment-driven GTM, diocesan oversight, and CYS league participation make it a closely comparable peer.
