Catholic Identity at Saint Patrick’s School
This school year the students at St. Patrick School are learning more about their faith and some of the traditions of the church as well as some of the important people and customs of the Catholic Church. We started off these activities by holding a Children’s Eucharistic Adoration on October 1 immediately following morning mass. We have also planned for a Saint of the Month beginning in October with St. Francis of Assisi. The children are learning about the Saint of the Month, doing a buddy activity, and pray a decade of the Rosary when we meet each month. We are also planning later in the school year a May Crowning celebration, a living rosary put on by the children, reconciliation prayer services, and many more activities. Please watch for these events on the monthly calendars

Our parish is one of a fraction of Archdiocese parishes that even offers a school. This is truly a gift—supported by the parish as one of the true evangelical paths we offer. As a Catholic and as a parish member, the ability to utilize the offerings of our school is truly a blessing. This is because St. Patrick’s school is committed to the development of the whole child—not just educating them. Our children begin and end each day with a prayer. Christian values are practiced the entire time they’re within the walls of the school.
Mission: The St. Patrick Parish School Community believes in teaching as Jesus did. Being faithful to the Gospel of Jesus, we strive to provide a strong academic foundation while teaching the beliefs and traditions of our faith.
