What are the hours for your school day?

Our school day starts at 8:00am. Our doors open at 7:00am with a before care program and close at 5:30pm with an after care program.

We offer 5 half days or 5 full days for our Pre-Kindergarten 3 and 4-year-old classrooms. Please contact us with further questions about the schedule or schedule a tour of our facilities and campus in Portsmouth, NH, by emailing our admissions team at admissions@saintpatrickacademy.org.

Do you work with students with learning differences or offer classroom accommodations?

Yes. We seek to equip each student with the skills and learning environment needed in order to ensure that each student is set up for success. As learning differences may vary, so, too, does our ability to serve all students.  As part of the admissions process, we review each student’s entire academic portfolio, which includes any learning assessments done at another school, and we work with each student individually to determine an appropriate fit. For questions about specific student plans, please contact our Dean of Students, Ian Snyder, at isnyder@saintpatrickacademy.org 

What age must students be for Pre-K and Kindergarten?

Students must be 3 by September 30th to enter PreK-3, 4 by September 30th to enter PreK-4, and 5 by September 30th to enter Kindergarten.
