St. Paul High School

"Consequently, graduates of Catholic high schools show the highest level of success among those who enter four year colleges."

Patricia James Sweeney's article, "Coleman Revisited: Policy Implications for Catholic Educators"

Greetings!

On behalf of the entire St. Paul High School community, I would like to thank you for your interest in our school. The ultimate goal of St. Paul High School is to focus on three objectives. These three objectives are faith formation, academic excellence, and community service. Ensuring that students develop a deeper relationship with God, challenging them academically in preparing for the university and career of their choice, and assisting them in offering competitive athletic teams, quality fine art programs, and comprehensive extra-curricular activities are the priorities of all our faculty and staff.

To witness our programs first hand, we invite you to visit us. Our “Swordsmen For A Day” program is open to all students from grade eight and up who are interested in attending St. Paul High School and who would like to visit the campus during the school day. A host student will accompany you to his/her classes. More information about this program is available by calling the Main Office or sending an email request to futureswordsmen@stpaulhs.org. Tours of the campus are available as well. To calendar a school visit, please contact Robert Miller (rmiller@stpaulhs.org).
