St Bede Catholic School

26910 Patrick Avenue, Hayward, CA, 94544-0945
Saint Bede School is a K-8 Catholic school which emphasizes both Catholic education and academic excellence. In a nurturing and inclusive environment, Saint Bede Catholic School teaches the gospel message of Jesus Christ, builds a service-oriented faith community, and encourages students to develop academic and social skills that will lead them to be lifelong learners. We believe that parents are the primary educators of their children. The school, as part of the greater parish community, assists parents. Through inclusive academic and extra-curricular programs, the faculty and staff facilitate learning that is formative in the development of the whole child: spirit, mind, body. The environment at Saint Bede School enhances the individual's self-worth, promotes an appreciation of the diversity of all people, and encourages moral responses to the events of daily life. Opportunities for worship and service enable students to develop a world view, respond to the urgent call for peace and justice, and grow into responsible Christian leaders of their family, school, church, civic, and global communities.
