Seeing Infinite Value in Every Child
St. Patrick’s Episcopal Day School strives to create a diverse and inclusive learning community of students, faculty and staff, and parents who recognize the infinite value of every individual as a child of God.
Advancing Human Understanding
We encourage our students to extend their fascination with the world, to gain confidence about their roles in the world, and to understand the world more fully through others.
Promoting Academic Excellence
Exceptional Literacy is the intention and the destination of the educational journey at St. Patrick’s. It prepares each student to understand and communicate effectively with others, to seek new knowledge, and to fulfill a greater sense of personal responsibility.
Dedicated to Developing Character
We dedicate ourselves to each student's moral and spiritual growth, a commitment evident in an abiding concern for the quality of our shared life in this place and for service to the wider communities of which St. Patrick's is a part.
