St. Christopher School
Saint Christopher School is a Catholic Elementary School founded in 1961 as a vital part of the Paterson Diocese.
The purpose of our school is to fully integrate our religious values with our academic priorities.
Our intent is to serve the needs of each child; spiritually, academically, physically and emotionally.
At St. Christopher School the teachings of Christ foster a Christian environment that nurtures the development of every child entrusted to us.
We consider each child to be gifted and our challenge is to help develop their talents, as well as their self image.
Our dedicated teachers prepare each child with the academic and social skills needed to face the challenges of life and the future.
