Rich in History, Academics and Service

St. Paul Catholic School celebrates its 94th year with pride and thankfulness to the Franciscan Sisters of Allegany, New York on September 15, 1930.

Welcome from Principal,
Brendan Butcher

Dear Brothers & Sisters in Christ,

Welcome to St. Paul Catholic School, where the timeless values of the Franciscan charism and our rich Catholic identity have been shaping young minds since our founding in 1930 by the Franciscan Sisters of Allegany.

Early childhood

The Early Childhood Program is centered on developmentally appropriate activities to fit the learning and socialization needs of each child. At this age, playing equals learning. It is through play that children learn to think, explore, share, problem solve, communicate and develop their imaginations. At this age, children are introduced to the Christian lifestyle and the roots of our Catholic faith. 

Elementary school

To facilitate both academic mastery and personal growth, students are exposed to a range of instructional mediums that cater to their developmental and spiritual needs. This ensures a well-rounded education experience for students. During these years, students continue exploring their own personal relationship with God and recognizing the role they each play in the story of salvation history.

Middle school

At our middle school, we place a strong emphasis on daily engagement, support, and challenge. This creates an environment where students develop problem-solving skills and thrive academically. As young adults, students in our Middle School prepare themselves for living as disciples of Christ in their future vocations.

October Virtue: Simplicity

Our students focus on learning and applying a new scripture verse every month. Each verse is centered on the monthly virtue. For the month of October, the virtue is Simplicity. The scripture verse is as follows:

“The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want”
– Psalms 23:1
