The remainder come from across the United States and from all parts of the world: Latvia, Hong Kong, Nigeria, Norway, Japan, Argentina, and many other countries.
Together we share a goal of progressing in our walk of faith and maintaining high standards for academic achievement.
The mission of Saint Paul thrives on the support of its great friends, parents, and alumni.
