For over 60 years, St. Felicitas Catholic School has been educating the hearts, minds, and spirits of students in San Leandro and surrounding areas. We are blessed to have a location tucked away in the Manor neighborhood with lots of space for our students. St. Felicitas is committed to providing an exceptional education rooted in Catholic Christian values. Students are challenged each day to be spiritually centered, life long learners who communicate effectively and are globally aware. Educating students in a diverse environment, allows us to embed an appreciation for individual differences in all that we do. By always striving to live out the morals that Jesus models for us, we have developed a strong sense of family within our community. We are proud and inspired by our dedicated faculty and staff who are committed to the holistic formation of each child by providing an excellent academic experience in a faith-filled, nurturing environment. Our students are reminded each day at morning assembly that they are loved by God. We believe that if our students leave with nothing else but understanding how truly and deeply loved they are, we have done our job because everything else falls into place after that. We are accepting applications for Preschool, Transitional Kindergarten, and Kinder through 7th grade!
