St. Katharine Drexel School is a Catholic parochial elementary school serving students in kindergarten through grade eight.
St. Katharine Drexel Catholic School, continuing the mission of St. Mary Magdalen Parish and Our Lady of Sorrows Parish, supports parents as the first teachers of their children in the ways of faith by providing a Christ-centered, safe, and loving school environment offering an excellent academic program of learning.
Catholic education includes all the deliberate, systematic, and sustained efforts of the Church community, in both formal and informal education settings, to develop the skills, knowledge, and values needed for life.
In today's pluralistic society, the Church offers the harmonizing perspective of faith to human culture and history.
Catholic education sees all knowledge as sacred when human insight is combined with divine revelation in the pursuit of truth, goodness, and beauty.
