Welcome to St. Patrick

School Picture

St. Patrick School is an educational institution which, recognizing that every person is created in the image and likeness of God and having an eternal destiny, strives to provide the spiritual, academic, social, emotional and physical formation necessary for each student to discern and faithfully live his or her personal vocation in this life and come one day to the joys of Heaven.

We pride ourselves in keeping our class sizes small (under 25). We want all of our students to receive individualized teacher attention.

Our Terra Nova testing scores are well above the national median. Our students receive a well-rounded education that offers all the traditional subjects in addition to religion, music, PE, art, Spanish, computers and high school algebra for the 8th grade students.

No student shall be refused admission the St. Patrick Grade School on the basis of race, color, gender, national or ethnic origin. Students of religious denominations other than Catholic may be admitted according to local policy.

"It is crucial that the policies and procedures of Catholic schools reflect the primary purpose and that the Catholicity of the school and its faithfulness to the teaching authority of the Catholic Church (Magisterium) are not compromised."
Sister Mary Angela Shaughnessy, SCN, J.D. Ph.D

"From the first moment that a student sets foot in a Catholic school, he or she ought to have the impression of entering a new environment, one illuminated by the light of faith and having its own unique characteristics, an environment permeated with the Gospel spirit of love and freedom."
The Religious Dimension of Education in a Catholic School, #125
