The embattled Kansas military school has announced it will close after this school year, saying it has unfairly become a target for litigation and the media. St. John's Military School said Wednesday, Feb. 6, 2019, that recent legal issues and low enrollment resulting from &quot;negative and unfair portrayals in the media&quot; created a deficit it couldn't overcome.
