School Notes Overview:

We are called by the church "To Teach As Jesus Did" by preparing our young people to live out the Gospel within the context of a parish school and church community. St. Elizabeth Seton School exists to serve the children from Our Lady of Victory, St. Anne, St. Austin, St. Bridget and St. Margaret Mary parishes whose families expect a Catholic, value based, quality education in a spiritual environment.
