Principal's Welcome

Glory be to God! Welcome to Saint Patrick School!

With its rich history, Saint Patrick School has long been an integral part of the local community of McEwen and surrounds. We are blessed to welcome students from five counties to receive a Catholic education in the Saint Patrick Community.

At Saint Patrick School, in keeping with the teaching of the Catholic Church, we believe that education is a partnership between parents and the school. I consider it a privilege to enter into partnership with our families for the good of these beautiful children in pursuit of a Catholic education.

Saint Patrick was a zealous missionary and evangelist, whom we seek to follow as disciples of Jesus. He is best known for his simple, yet clear explanation of the mystery of the Trinity – One God, Three Persons. We are baptized into the life of the Trinity, and through our baptism, the Trinity dwells within our souls through sanctifying grace. As we seek to grow in our devotion to Saint Patrick and a deepening of our Christian faith, last year we began a three-year journey into the Heart of the Trinity. Last year, we meditated together on Run to the Father as we sought to grow more secure in the love of our good Father in Heaven. This year, we turn to God the Son, who became incarnate for love of us and to save us from our sins. Jesus Christ leads us back to the Father when he calls to each one of us, “Come, follow me.” Matthew 4:19.

I am grateful for your support of Saint Patrick School as we seek to form our children to be seekers of truth and bearers of love to a world deeply in need of the Father’s embrace.

Pray for us as we do for you!
