Why Catholic School?
Our schools are dedicated to providing an exceptional education rooted in the Catholic faith. Research shows children who attend Catholic Schools are more likely than their counterparts in other schools to graduate, go on to college, and secure higher paying jobs. Students also score higher on advanced achievement tests in reading and math.
Every child – whatever their faith background, socioeconomic status, ethnicity or learning ability – is a beloved child of God and we welcome them with open arms at our schools.
