An Excellent Hands-On, Faith-Based Education
Our Philosophy
We strive to ensure our students are inquiring, knowledgeable, and caring young people who understand and respect the multi-cultured world in which we live. We do this by providing a nurturing environment in which all students have the opportunity to pursue their individual intellectual abilities and discover their unique gifts. We are committed to academic excellence, worship, and service to others; our students achieve a deeper awareness of their responsibility to God, community, the world at large, and themselves.

A Message From the Principal
As principal, it is very important to me that everyone who steps through our doors, whether it be a staff member, parent, student or visitor, is excited to be here. The positive attitude and welcoming setting enables us to meet the challenges of academic excellence in a positive, fun, nurturing environment and grow our school community, while furthering our mission of providing a strong Catholic foundation for our students.

Enrichment
St. Jude recognizes the importance of providing a robust array of enrichment opportunities for students in all grades and of all abilities.
Spiritual Development
We integrate our Catholic faith into our every day teachings. Our students begin each day with prayer, attend weekly Mass, complete Sacramental preparation and participate in acts of community service.
