Dear Parents and Guardians,

            Thank you for considering Saint Paul’s Catholic School for your child.  We know that you have many options for your child’s education and hope that after learning more about our school you will choose Saint Paul’s as your school family.

            We are fully accredited by the State of Florida and have a highly qualified staff of state certified educators, most of who have been with our school for many years. Our students take the Iowa Test of Basic Skills (ITBS) each year in which scores are compared with other public and private schools across the country.  Saint Paul’s always scores at a high level yet we are constantly working to improve our instructional methodology and practices.

            During the fall of 2008, we will be moving into a new building housing a state of the art science lab, media center, wireless computer facility, video production room and an all purpose room and cafeteria.  A current building will be renovated to house our fine arts programs; music and art.  A plan is also in process to enclose our basketball court to become a full size gymnasium, and we have just completed a regulation track, softball field and soccer field for our physical education and sports programs.

            We are proud that we are able to attend Mass each week, as well as a Wednesday morning prayer service.  Every morning we group together as a school family for morning assembly and pray together as we delight in each other’s company.

            We truly feel that our family environment promotes learning, spiritual growth, fellowship, stability and safety for all of our school community.

            I would like to share with you the thoughts of several of our eighth grade students that they wrote in essays about their school.

            “At Saint Paul’s I have become a member of a magnificent family that I can always talk to and never fail to count on.  I have received more love and care here than I could ever have hoped for anywhere else and that means a lot.  Saint Paul’s is a place where everyone can feel welcomed with open arms and no one is left behind.”  Chelsea

            “In my lifetime I have been to five schools all of them public but one, and not in one of the public schools did I receive the type of curriculum that I have at Saint Paul’s.  The amount that I have accumulated in my head mentally and in my heart spiritually is double the amount that any public school child could even imagine.”  Kissel

            What more can I say to you about our school that has not already been said within the quotes above.  Thank you again for considering Saint Paul’s Catholic School for your child.  We would like to welcome you to our family!

Yours in Christ,
