the dream

DME Academy at St. John's Northwestern Academies is an exciting new partnership between the two academic institutions.

The partnership began in August 2023, with the goal of SJNA and DME working together to amplify the sports program at SJNA's campus in Delafield, Wisconsin. This move is the beginning of what both academies expect to be a deeper relationship whereby DME Academy will lead and grow all sports programs at the SJNA campus.

DME Academy's prestigious, nationally-ranked boys and girls basketball programs have developed elite student-athletes who have found success at both the collegiate and professional levels. With NBA roots, years of developing top athletes, and a track record of success, DME looks to excel SJNA's basketball program to the next level.
