Mission Statement
St. Catherine School is committed to providing a Catholic education for the whole child, preparing each to be a responsible member of the community. Inspired by our founders, we strive to live the mission of Jesus, expressing the core values of education, justice, charity and freedom. We recognize parents as primary educators, and teachers as facilitators of discovery and learning as students continue to pursue excellence in their spiritual, academic and personal lives.

Dear Parents and Friends,
Our school year is off to a wonderful start with enrollment continuing to increase. I am sorry to have missed the Welcome Back Potluck last Friday. I heard it was great fun! I was attending a family wedding in California. Thank you to all who worked to set up and organize this event, especially Leilani Sim-Godbehere and Ann Croydon!
Our PTG met on Tuesday evening with new officers and new plans. Amy Hutson, Ann Croydon, Kalen Kelekoma, and Keani Cummings, PTG officers are available most mornings to chat if you have ideas you would like to share. Thank you PTG for the work you do in support of St. Catherine School!
