At St. Croix Catholic, when we open the door to welcome a new student, we see a beautiful, unique life that has been Created for Greatness. We believe that God has a specific purpose for this person and it`s our mission, in partnership with parents, to develop this child into the virtuous, faith-filled leader God intended. St. Croix Catholic offers a strong liberal arts education, coupled with opportunities to develop 21st century skills.
This beautiful balance prompts students to focus on challenges relevant to the human race, and to be the compassionate, confident, Christ-centered leaders our world so badly needs. Located in historic Stillwater, St. Croix Catholic School educates children from preK through grade 8, and attracts families throughout the St. Croix Valley, from the east metro, and into western WI.

Since 1856, thousands of young people from Stillwater and
beyond have been educated in a tradition of academic excellence
within a vibrant Catholic community. As a school staffed by the
Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet, the Benedictine nuns from St.
Joseph, MN, and recently staffed since 2002 by the Nashville
Dominicans, we have the privilege of nurturing the complementary
charisms of two great saints, St. Benedict and St. Dominic. The
result is a balanced and dynamic environment where faith and
culture meet.
Our strong academic program happens within a rich community
life anchored in the person of Jesus Christ. Religion is not simply
a class that fits in a specific time frame; rather, it is the
reason we exist and the catalyst for everything we do.
Yet what is the "difference" that draws young families to
entrust their children to our care Our graduates demonstrate a
proven track record of success in high school, college and in
future careers. They are confident, poised young men and women who
can hold their own in any situation. The difference is not the
product, but the preparation. The difference is the Catholic
difference- an strong integration of faith and reason, respecting
the needs of each child at each stage of development in their young
lives.
At Saint Croix Catholic, our mission is threefold: to inform by
sharing knowledge with students across the disciplines, to form
character by helping each student grow to Christian maturity, and
to transform the world by calling every student to holiness and
equipping him/her with the tools to put faith into action. A Saint
Croix Catholic student graduates with an education in which he/she
can give to our often fragmented culture a great gift, that of an
integral education of the human person where Christ is the
foundation and the model.
We are grateful for this gift of Saint Croix Catholic School
that has been nourished by the generations of teachers, students,
and parents who have gone before us. At the foot of the Holy Cross,
for which our school takes its name, we pray that we, like our
students, "may always be ready to give a reason for our hope" (1 Pt
3:15) before the world.
