Get to Know Us
-
St. Paul Catholic School in Marion, Indiana is a preschool through 7th grade academic community focused on preparing students academically and spiritually for life’s challenges. We provide a well rounded education with an emphasis on helping each child reach their full potential. This is evident through the advanced placement of students based on their ind
ividual needs and the availability of after-school enrichment programs.
The values-infused curriculum confronts many concerns facing society today. The use of hands on learning activities such as science labs, one-to-one technology and a Buddy Reading Program help to reinforce subject material. Students study music, art, physical education, computers and religion in addition to core curriculum subjects. While students attend weekday mass, they also take turns ministering at mass beginning as young as first grade. They receive the benefit of Father Theodore Rothrock's vast faith knowledge weekly in the classroom and have prayer as a part of their daily lives. We are committed to setting a positive example of leadership in our community through incorporating service-learning activities into the curriculum. Students participate in both classroom and school-wide service projects throughout the year. Classrooms give of their time by visiting nursing homes, collecting items for those in need and assisting at the community center and humane society.
WHAT OUR STUDENTS SAY...
"I love my s
chool because I am learning, but not only science, math and language, I am learning how to be compassionate, polite and motivated. These teachers and students do much more than learn and teach. They support one another and they grow together. I know when I leave this school, I will be sad and ready for the challenges ahead.”
