The central task of Saint Patrick School is to foster growth of persons in community through faith, based on the Gospel values and integrate Christian ideals into all aspects of learning. Our educators strive to prepare students to proclaim the “Good News” and translate this into action. Saint Patrick School nourishes a spirit of mission, community, worship, service, and personal prayer.

Each member of the Saint Patrick School community is unique, possessing abilities and talents given by God which are nurtured and developed in the educational setting. As an educational institution, academics are paramount to child development. The curriculum imparts knowledge necessary for life success, social and physical development. Curriculum and technological development are current and ongoing, based on individual needs, student diversity, and social awareness. Outreach programs play an integral role in student social development.

Teachers strive to accept the challenge of developing the whole child intellectually, spiritually, physically, and emotionally. Gospel values are modeled in each classroom setting. Teachers and staff nurture personal growth and instill in the students a sense of Christian witness. The faculty acknowledges the need to cultivate a pleasant atmosphere for instruction where the students learn responsibility by assuming it and by exercising self-discipline. Since parents are the primary educators of the children, teachers share with the parents a partnership in educating the students by collaborating with them to develop a plan ensuring individual success. The ultimate goal is to prepare the students for higher education through mastery of academic skills while upholding gospel values for mature, moral decision making as the students live their Christian faith.
