The mission of St. Patrick Catholic School is to educate our children to know, love and serve God through religion, academics, physical activities and community service.
We provide an environment where our students learn to take risks without fear of criticism to develop the skills of decision making, self-reliance, independence, cooperation, and respect for others.
We challenge our students to do their personal best in all aspects of school life - academic, athletic, and artistic.
We teach our students to discover their strengths in order to see what can be accomplished when they give their best.
