Overview
We are committed to providing a quality educational experience for each child, creating an environment that nurtures individual intellectual, emotional, creative, spiritual, and physical gifts within a community that is explicitly framed by principles of the Religious Society of Friends.
In 1976 Seton was founded as a result of a consolidation of St. Andrew and St. Mary Schools.
In 1982 Holy Family School joined the consolidation. Seton Catholic School exists to serve Jesus Christ as an integral part of the mission of Saint Andrew, Saint Mary, and Holy Family parishes.
Worship, academics, community, and service comprise a quality Catholic Education.
Sharing the message of Jesus is at the heart of our mission, underlying everything that we do. Through the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the intercession of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, the faculty and staff strive to teach as Jesus did, working with parents and guardians to guide students toward spiritual, academic and personal excellence.
