"We are about a values-based, faith-driven education where we teach self-reliance, respect for others, and love of community."

James Melone
Head of School

A State-of-the-art facility, so our students Can focus on what's important

As you enter the school the inscription over the chapel is immediately visible, “Let the children come to me” – Matthew 9:14. This is an invitation from Jesus to all of us.  If we teach children and show them that we are not alone, that there is God, and that He loves them, then this will be the foundation of their confidence and trust. It will free them to be joyful.

Our Catholic Christian identity is not a class subject.  It is simply who we are and all are invited to experience its goodness, truth, and beauty. Piety alone, though, is no excuse for poor scholarship as academic excellence is core to our private Catholic school’s K-8 programming. We regularly review our academic performance including Spanish, STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math), art, music, and physical education. STEM instruction is only offered for grades 3rd – 8th each week and is one of the many innovative areas our students really enjoy.
