Dear Parents
As Principal of St. Albert the Great, it is my pleasure to welcome you to our school! Our environment is both nurturing and supportive, and continues to grow through the contributions of all of our members. As you walk through the school door, you find yourself surrounded by a feeling of friendliness, dedication, cooperation, and most importantly, a sense of family.
As a school of excellence, St. Albert seeks to enroll well-rounded students who are eager to learn and grow in their faith relationship with the Lord. And as a community of Christ, we accept applications from families of all backgrounds. While students are held to higher standards, a dedicated, experienced staff works to meet the needs of every child and the expectations of every parent. Our teachers continually participate in professional development covering the best educational practices. The latest technology enhances our teachers’ ability to shape the 21st century learners. All learners are unique individuals who learn and grow at their own pace. Students encounter a broad variety of learning experiences that blends the traditional and the innovative. Using our MAP testing results as a guide, we offer at every grade level, reinforcement of essential concepts, providing additional support beyond the classroom setting.
In addition to a strong educational foundation, St. Albert offers many opportunities for student enrichment through clubs, sports, and extracurricular activities.
A preschool is available to our youngest students starting at age 3. The Extended Day Program provides childcare for working parents.
Faculty and staff at St. Albert constantly strives for the advancement, safety, and well-being of each and every child. They choose to be teachers in a Catholic school because they consider their profession to be a mission and not just a job.
