Mission Statement
Saint Patrick’s School, a Catholic co-educational institution of learning for students in grades Pre-K3 through 8, seeks to provide a total program of instruction, emphasizing the spiritual, moral, intellectual, social, cultural and physical development of every child. In a creative environment, St. Patrick’s School provides an exceptional, technology-enriched education to develop knowledge, stimulate growth and form life-enriching experiences. In this family atmosphere, we promote an environment where knowledge is constantly pursued, while providing the means to develop individual student skills and talents.

School Philosophy
Saint Patrick’s School is a non-discriminatory, Catholic, co-educational institution of learning for students in grades Pre-K3 through 8. The purpose of Saint Patrick’s School is to provide quality Catholic education to develop life-long learners in a God-centered atmosphere. Saint Patrick’s School acknowledges that a child’s development varies greatly from early childhood through adolescence; therefore academic and social needs should be met differently at each stage. The educational process, which begins with the parent, is enhanced by professional staff and faculty committed to the development of each student’s unique talents. In cooperation with families, we provide a total program of instruction based on the spiritual, academic, and physical needs of each child. All faiths are welcome.
