Saint Germaine School exists to promote a Catholic Christian life style based upon gospel values.

As a God-centered community of faith and education, we teach Jesus' message of love, truth, respect, fellowship, reconciliation, self-discipline and hope.

Our school prepares children to integrate these values into their ongoing relationships with God, family, peers, church and society.

We recognize that every child is a unique gift. Saint Germaine's teachers and staff accept their responsibility to nurture the personal, spiritual, academic, moral, social, emotional and physical development of every child entrusted to our care.
