Join us! The St. Pat's tradition is to pack up after noon dismissal and go to Pierce Island in Portsmouth for a cookout, fun and games.

We can't wait to celebrate a great year with you! Stay tuned for a Signup Genius!

Our good school is growing! We now have 3 grades waitlisted. Please help to spread the word so that we can continue to attract great families!
INTRODUCTION
We are very pleased to welcome our newest faculty member: Mrs. Deborah Brown. Mrs. Brown will teach Fifth and Sixth Grade Language Arts and History next year.
Mrs. Brown believes in the importance of building strong relationships within her school and broader community. She understands that connecting with students engages them to be life-long learners. She is both excited and committed to implement a faith-filled curriculum and continue to create a unique interactive classroom environment that promotes citizenship inside and outside Saint Patrick Academy. To her, teaching is "a passion; not a profession."

As always, please let us know if you have any questions. We are here to help.
God Bless,
Mark Schwerdt
