Principal’s 2026-2027 Welcome Message

Dear St. Patrick’s School Community,

Welcome to another exciting school year at St. Patrick’s School! It is with a grateful heart that I welcome both our returning families and those who are joining our school community for the first time. Each new year offers a fresh opportunity to grow in faith, deepen our knowledge, and strengthen the bonds that make St. Patrick’s such a special place.

Last year, we reflected on the strength that comes through Christ as we embraced new opportunities and challenges together. This year, we continue that journey by focusing on living our faith each day through kindness, service, perseverance, and love. As a Catholic school, we are called not only to pursue academic excellence but also to become disciples who reflect Christ in our words, actions, and relationships with others. We are Rooted in Christ.

At St. Patrick’s School, our mission extends far beyond the classroom. We strive to nurture the whole child—spiritually, intellectually, emotionally, and socially—while fostering a safe, welcoming environment where every student is known, valued, and encouraged to reach their God-given potential. Through prayer, meaningful learning experiences, and service to others, we prepare our students to become compassionate leaders who will make a positive difference in the world.

As we continue the proud tradition that has defined St. Patrick’s School for more than a century, I am deeply grateful for the partnership we share with our families, parish, faculty, staff, and volunteers. Your unwavering support and commitment help create a community rooted in faith, excellence, and love.

I pray that this school year will be filled with joy, discovery, and countless opportunities to experience God’s grace. May we continue to encourage one another, celebrate our successes, learn from our challenges, and grow ever closer to Christ.

Thank you for entrusting us with the privilege of educating your children. I look forward to another wonderful year together.

May God bless you and your families throughout the year ahead.

In His peace,

Kelli Zielinski
Principal
St. Patrick’s School
