St. Charles School is a Catholic Faith community. We provide and nurture a supportive and inclusive Christ-centered environment where students grow in faith, serve others, and pursue academic excellence.
SAINT CHARLES BORROMEO
St. Charles Borromeo (1538-1584) was the Archbishop of Milan and a Cardinal, as well as the Papal Secretary of State under Pope Pius IV. He was one of the drafters of the first Catechism of the Catholic Church, a leader of the Catholic Reformation, and an innovator of religious education, especially for children—establishing what is commonly known as "Sunday School."
He performed many works of charity and selflessly ministered to the sick during a serious outbreak of bubonic plague.
Saint Charles Borromeo is the patron saint of learning, the arts, and catechists. His feast day is November 4th.
Our dedicated teachers and staff have been busy preparing for the upcoming year!
A focus on the arts enriches student life! Read more about Art, Band, and Theater programs!

Academic Excellence
St. Charles School takes pride in its commitment to academic excellence. An up-to-date curriculum fuses twenty-first century educational best practices with a rigorous traditional academic program. Teachers implement effective instructional strategies through cross-curricular and differentiated instruction, alternative assessments, and project-based learning. Primary emphasis is placed on critical thinking and problem-solving strategies that encourage students to analyze, hypothesize, evaluate, and synthesize, through thinking, listening, speaking, reading, and writing in all content areas. An integrated religion program ensures student knowledge of the Catholic faith and student life in living the faith.
