Educating generations of students since 1856, we provide a rigorous curriculum in a safe and caring environment.
In the classroom and in the community, we form children of God to become thought-leaders, social justice advocates and compassionate humans. By worshipping, serving, and learning, our students grow in their ability to discover and live out the Good News.
MISSION
We, the Saint Clare School Community, joyfully embody the Gospel mission entrusted by Christ to His Church. Made in the image and likeness of God, our community values our diversity, embracing all backgrounds and cultures. With a rigorous curriculum and student-centered instruction, we, together with parents as primary educators of their children, form learners with strong academic and spiritual foundations to become moral and ethical servant leaders.
