STCS is a parochial school supported by St. Theresa Catholic Church.
As a Classical Catholic School, St. Theresa Catholic School is governed by a distinctive academic philosophy calculated and proven to engender success.
At St. Theresa Catholic, we are committed to Classical Catholic education.
Classical educators are particularly concerned to reconnect with that long tradition of liberal education which has been largely forgotten in the innumerable and frequent ideological revolutions that mark the history of modern educational theory.
As Classical educators, we feel that some of the perennial hallmarks of a solid education are missing in the typical American school, and we intend to recover those elements through an educational philosophy calculated for success.

School Reviews

We are all a family at this school. The staff and teachers love our children like their own. The curriculum is challenging and rigorous, but my children are supported while being pushed to be the best they can be. The teachers emphasize morals and Catholic values, and I believe that my children are being developed into a wonderful, loving, and kind individuals. In comparison to friends of the same age at different schools, my kids are excelling in every subject. My oldest child's reading levels are several years above grade level; they are learning how to critically think and analyze information in science and math classes; all students take Latin and are learning not just academics but also responsibility and perseverance. Phenomenal school, fantastic community- I feel a pride dropping my kids off each day and watching them shake the headmaster's hand every morning before walking into school. We are so lucky to educate our children at STCS!
