On behalf of our staff, students and parents, I’d like to thank you for your interest in St. Justin Martyr School. We are very proud of our school and students. I realize you have many options for your child’s education. Let me briefly share why I think we are the best option for your child’s Catholic Education.

As a school community, five Core Values reflect who we are and what we do. At St. Justin Martyr, your child will be

  • “Formed with Family”     We celebrate a family atmosphere and a close-knit community.
  • “Formed by the Best”     We commit, with our award-winning staff, to understand students as individual learners and meet their needs.
  • “Informed with Innovation”     We enhance the learning environment with innovative practices and hands-on learning.
  • “Transformed by Knowledge”     We empower our students to apply their knowledge and become lifelong learners.
  • “Transformed by Faith”     We embrace a culture rich in prayer and acts of service guided by Jesus, our best teacher.

Investing in your child’s future by choosing a St. Justin Martyr education is one of the best decisions you can make for your child. If you should have any questions about our school, please do not hesitate to contact me. I look forward to sharing this journey with you and your child.
