Saint Patrick Catholic School is a joyful and faith-filled learning place dedicated to helping students freely choose their personal best in every aspect of their lives. Together, as a community, we help students recognize their choices to be happy, responsible, faithful, and successful young people in school and in life.
For students in grades 5-8, we encourage students to become independent learners and thinkers in preparation for success in high school. Instruction is both engaging and interesting, building on students' strengths but not ignoring weaknesses. Teachers’ expectations increase and curricular focus narrows from one grade level to the next in middle school, reflecting our belief that the developmental needs for children change as they mature.
Consistent throughout all grades, though, is our belief--supported by recent findings in brain research-- that the best learning takes place in relationships. This belief is highlighted by our Middle School Advisory Program. We intend for students to see all faculty and staff members as advocates and partners in their learning and growing. We encourage students to make connections with these adults as key resources in their growth as students and people.
The middle school years are important ones in the growth and development of the individual. We are confident that our high academic standards coupled with our high level of personal attention provide each student with the support they need during these important years and beyond. We invite you to stop on by, take a tour, and see for yourself our Wolfhound pride!
