St John's Institution (Malay: Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan St John) is a premier secondary school for boys (sixth form is co-ed) and one of the oldest schools in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The school is widely known as SJI and the students of St John's Institution bear the name Johannians.
SJI is famous for its achievement in academic, sports and other activities for secondary school level in Malaysia. It is considered one of the best non-residential schools in Malaysia. The school is named after Saint John Baptist de La Salle, the founder of the De La Salle Christian Brothers Order and also known as the Patron Saint of Teachers.
SJI formerly consisted of two primary schools and a secondary school. The primary and secondary schools functioned together until the increase in enrolment of pupils led to a separation in 1960. The primary schools are formally known in Malay today as Sekolah Rendah Kebangsaan St John (1) and Sekolah Rendah Kebangsaan St John (2) while the secondary school is called Sekolah Menengah St John.
The La Sallian Brothers and the Board of Trustees still hold much autonomy over management of the secondary school compared to the Malaysian Ministry of Education. Though the school land is owned by the Roman Catholic church (including St. John's Cathedral, Kuala Lumpur which is next to the school), much of the school funding is received from the Government of Malaysia.
SJI has been named as one of the 'cluster school' of excellence by the Malaysian Ministry of Education, which will be given autonomy in administration and adequate funding to excel in specialised fields (academic, sports and extracurricular activities) of choice.

Site and architecture
St. John's Institution is located on Bukit Nanas in the heart of Kuala Lumpur in lush green surroundings adjacent to the Bukit Nanas Forest Reserve. Its Primary School counterpart (St John's Primary School) shares the same hill across the road from St. John's Institution (Secondary School) building. Also sharing the same hill are the girls-only Convent Bukit Nanas (an Infant Jesus Sisters' school), the AIG (American Insurance Group) building, the Catholic Archdiocese of Kuala Lumpur facility, the Fatima Kindergarten and St John's Catholic Cathedral. The kindergarten and community service centre shares the same facility and also holds the distinction of being Kuala Lumpur's oldest (former) Catholic church building.
St. John's Secondary School is a red and white-brick building with Grecian-Spanish architectural influences and is gazetted as a National Heritage Building by the Government of Malaysia.
Pupils
The student composition has always been multi-ethnic and multi-religious and English has been the most common language used in the school throughout the years.
St John's Institution is a boys' school, with the exception of the sixth form which is co-educational. Girls (collectively known as the Eagirls) are enrolled in the lower and upper sixth forms in addition to boys. This has been the norm in Malaysian boys' secondary schools.
The school has the distinction of being one of the very few schools in Malaysia which enrols visually impaired students. As part of their curriculum, the visually impaired students attend normal classes with the rest of the students. The school has a resource room for visually impaired students which is attended by specially trained teachers and a club comprising of a large group of students who volunteer their time to assist their visually impaired school mates.
Administration
The school has traditionally been headed by the brother of the La Sallian order, with a Brother Director (like a headmaster) and a Brother Supervisor (like a deputy headmaster). In recent years, the Brother Supervisor was replaced with two assistant principals, who are not in the La Sallian order.
Former Brother Directors are:

The La Sallian Heritage
As St John's was founded by the La Sallian Brothers, it is related to many other La Sallian schools located all over Malaysia and around the world. These schools call each other brother schools and the La Sallian Heritage which binds them together.
Most of the La Salle schools in Kuala Lumpur, Petaling Jaya and Klang were set up by Brother D. Joseph Brophy and were originally feeder schools for SJI but eventually grew to be schools of their own.
For other La Salle Schools in Malaysia, see La Sallian Educational Institutions in Malaysia. For La Sallian schools around the world, refer to Lasallian educational institutions.
Uniform
The traditional uniform was a white short-sleeved button shirt (tucked-in), white trousers/black belt for the upper forms and white shorts for the lower forms. The issued green tie (similar to the uniform of St Joseph's Insitutition in Singapore) and the school emblem pin worn over the shirt pocket were also mandatory as stated in the Insitutition dress code. In the 1970s, the federal government imposed national school uniforms as opposed to uniforms distinct to each school. Therefore, Johannians wear the common olive green long trousers and white shirt as found in other secondary schools in Malaysia.
But the green tie which is a symbol of the institution stayed. The lower All the upper secondary students (Form 1 - 6) wear the distinct green tie with stripes and school emblem.
The Councillor Prefects(as the prefectorial board is known), have a special uniform of black trousers, white shirt and black blazer.

In 1972, the St. John Institution’s Cadet Band expanded to 65 band members.

Cheer, cheer and courage display ,
All ye Johannians join in the lay
Send a volley of cheers on high,
Shake down the thunder from the sky,
What though the odds be great or small,
Dear old St John's will win over all,
While her loyal sons are marching,
Onward to Victory!
Rise, boys and loudly proclaim,
That ye will never sully her name,
Let the hills and woodlands ring,
Lift up your hearts and loudly sing,
What though the way be rough or steep,
We unto virtue's summons will keep,
And if e'er our country needs us,
Loyal and true we'll be!
St John's!!!
School Rally (Bahasa Malaysia Version)
Tunjukkanlah keberanian,

Menuju puncak jaya.
