ALWAYS LEARNING
St. Edward students are #AlwaysLearning. Students don’t just memorize math equations or recite spelling words. They ask questions. They explore. They love not just school, but the process of learning. And learning comes not just through doing things right, but through doing things wrong. St. Edward develops develop resilient, innovative learners who try, grow and achieve.

ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE
St. Edward utilizes a standard-based curriculum aligned to the Roman Catholic Church teachings which prepares learners for high school and beyond. The faculty and staff continually expose learners to meaningful hands-on experiences, resulting in thoughtful risk-taking, problem solving and collaboration.

CREATIVITY
Through art and music classes and after-school activities, St. Edward builds creative and confident leaders. It’s also one of the only elementary schools to offer Makerspace – a hands-on studio that integrates technology, engineering and creativity with project-based solutions to real-world situations. All of these specialty classes are taught by dedicated teachers.

FAITH DEVELOPMENT
Each day, the school community prays, serves and grows in their relationship with the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. It is present in the books they read, the history they teach, and the music they sing. Students attend weekly Mass, participate in hands-on service projects, and provide mentorship through Prayer Partners.

COMMUNITY
The friendly smile at pick-up. The teachers who address you by name. Faith and academics are at the core of the school, but the community is the heart. Parents are involved in the school, from volunteering at events and on campus, to coaching after school sports, attending weekly Mass and serving as faith formation partners.
