We offer a quality program of instruction in a Christ-centered environment to encourage and guide children to become lifelong learners and committed members of both our society and of our Catholic Christian community.
Education at Saint Aidan School focuses on the development of the whole student.
The academic program is based on standards established by the New York State Board of Regents and by the Education Department of the Diocese of Rockville Centre.
Faculty, staff, and administration strive to develop, to examine and to implement sound educational practices that afford students opportunities to master content to the best of their abilities.
At Saint Aidan School, we accept with joy our challenge to educate the whole child by integrating intellectual and spiritual growth so that each is prepared for the world of the future and for the world without end.
