St. Patrick School

I have come to love this little gem. The classes are kept small, teachers communicate with us on the daily either verbally or by the school’s online website and with all the competition with private schools, the tuition here is actually not that bad.
I love the sense of family or closeness that everyone has. The people in the office have very good memory of who you and your children are. I love how most of the families participate in the schools events, fundraisers and other activities. They are highly up to date on the happenings and care for their students.
Oh yes, parking can get a little hectic as there are only two small parking lots fronting Waialae Ave. Use caution when entering.
Testing for Kindergarten is happening now! Take a look at your options, if interested.

It’s been almost 15 years since I graduated. But I remember St. Patrick’s as the place that set me up for success later in life. Went to school here from 6^th to 8^th grade after transferring from a public school. The education regimen here is structured which was good. It helped me to focus on the material itself. Though this is a double edge sword. You can know everything about the world, but being able to share it well verbally and in the written word is another thing.
Class sizes were typically the same size as the elementary school I went to where each grade had about 60 students. This seems a lot better than going to the intermediate school where the student population is larger. Being a Catholic private school, discipline is preached so I think students here are better behaved as such.
Oh and being that it is a Catholic school, students do have to attend church services and take religion courses. I am not Catholic, so this seemed a bit awkward. With one personal story of this time coming to mind often to reflect this. Aside from this, St. Patrick’s is an upstanding school which preaches good values.
