Welcoming. Uplifting. Academically Enriching. Discover the Catholic School Difference.

Nationally Recognized Academics

Catholic schools are some of the highest-performing schools in the country, according to the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP).

Social/Emotional Learning

We develop the whole child to encourage confidence, self-awareness and emotional well-being.

Inclusive Community

We foster and support a diverse community of learners. In fact, a quarter of our student body doesn’t identify as Catholic. The parents of these students value the academic excellence of a Catholic school education and the respect shown in our schools for beliefs, values and a higher sense of purpose.

Communities Fueled by Faith

Catholic schools are faith-based communities where belief in God is part of the everyday environment. Because of our faith, we prioritize developing positive character traits such as empathy and generosity.
