Why Choose St. Jerome School?

A Catholic education is the ultimate advantage, and a true gift to children, often born of great sacrifice and determination on the part of our families. With Jesus Christ as our model teacher, we share our faith, we share our knowledge, and we share our hearts as children delight in learning. We know your children…their academic needs and their endearing quirks and funny habits. They become a part of our hearts and our story.

The success of our school can be measured by the habits of our students. They are engaged! They are asking questions and learning a variety of ways to go after answers. They are full of wonder about their place in the world and in God’s amazing creation. They respect one another as sisters and brothers in Christ, and they support and love one another as they grow into the young people they are meant to be. They are joyfully formed in virtue!

Catholic schools have the highest graduation rate of any type of school system and have more students attend and graduate from a four-year college than any other type of school. In addition to academic excellence in the liberal arts and science and math, our St. Jerome students perform community service and continue to strengthen their relationship with Christ through school-wide Masses and daily prayer. When parents choose a Catholic education at St. Jerome School, for their child (ren), they choose an education grounded in truth, oriented toward wonder and amazement, and lasting in influence and effect.

Tuition at St. Jerome is among the most affordable in the Twin Cities area for Catholic and private schools. We work with families, one at a time, to arrive at a tuition rate that works for you and your family’s circumstances.
