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.

Saint Patrick Catholic School has given me footholds so I can strive for academic success.

We had a germ-tastic time during a special visit from parent volunteer Mrs. Ignacio, a Nurse Practitioner! She came to teach preschoolers all about germs—those sneaky little things that can make us sick—and how to stop them in their tracks.

The kids were amazed as she sprayed their hands with pretend “germs,” then they headed off to wash up. Afterward, we used a special light to see how well they did—germs hide in spots like under our nails and between our fingers. 

We also learned that singing the “Happy Birthday” song while scrubbing helps us wash long enough to send those germs packing.

Thank you, Mrs. Ignacio, for turning hand-washing into a super cool science experiment! 🧼🦠💡

Our 7th-grade altar servers helped create a prayerful and sacred atmosphere by serving with reverence at our school Mass.

Their service is a beautiful witness to faith in action. What an outward way you are living your faith?

Kindness is spreadable and sticky! How can you help spread kindness and make it stick while on spring break?

Third-grade saints in the making participated in a Kindness Retreat at Saint Patrick Catholic Church, where they explored the power of kind words and their lasting impact.

Through thoughtful discussions, reflections, and activities, they discovered how kindness spreads and becomes sticky!
