Our son loves his school. It's is so nice to drop off and pick up and be greeted by name. You will love it here! From academics, faith, compassion, safety, and care if that's what you are looking for, this is the place.

Saint Patrick Catholic School is a remarkable place. I am struck by how many of those students I still keep in regular contact with. I have built lifelong friends in this community.

We put two children through Saint Patrick Catholic School and we see the results every single day in their character, their dedication to their studies, and most importantly for us, in their faith lives.

Our school community gathered for a beautiful Lenten Mass led by 5th-grade students on Friday, March 21.

Their thoughtful participation and reverent leadership helped guide us deeper into our Lenten journey during this second week of the season.

From the readings to the prayers, the students helped us reflect on God’s mercy and the call to grow closer to Christ through prayer, fasting, and almsgiving.

We invite our school families and parish community to join us for Mass every Friday during Lent at 9:00 AM in the Church. Each week, a different class leads Mass, giving students a meaningful opportunity to grow in faith and service. Celebrating Mass together strengthens our bond as a community and reminds us of the grace and renewal this sacred season brings. We hope to see you there!
