Overview
We like to think of SHS as a "continuation of home".
A warm, caring and safe environment allows each student to flourish academically, socially and emotionally.
We see the high potential inside every student. Our challenge is to make sure each child sees that too. We have always believed that parents are the primary educators of their children and we consider it a privilege to work alongside them in the education and formation of each and every student.
Saint Patrick Academy is a Christ-centered community. As members of the Saint Patrick Academy community, we strive to exemplify Christ's love in all matters.
In an environment which allows the children to develop self-confidence and personal integrity, we challenge our students to become contributing of the world community.
In the Catholic tradition, we provide a solid foundation for our students to become lifelong learners.
The Saint Patrick Academy community models the ideal of service to others as we strive to be agents of peace and justice.
We foster traditional Catholic values. We believe that children are entitled to possess a strong set of Christian values and sufficient knowledge that will enable them to think and act responsibly and respectfully.
We believe in providing a safe learning environment which nurtures each child's gifts.
