A Place Where Children are Known and Loved
WE ARE GLAD YOU ARE HERE.
John Ireland Catholic School is a Catholic community welcoming students of all faiths, devoted to Gospel Values, Academic Excellence, and Christian Service.
Your child will be known and loved.
Our caring staff and family-like environment ensures each child receives individual attention and love. Each child is a gift from God and deserves to leave the school day joyful and filled with love.
Your child will grow in virtue.
Through daily prayer, weekly Mass, and a curriculum integrated in faith, our students are learning about being a disciple of Jesus every step of the way. Monthly, our school focuses on holy habits to help build virtue among our staff and students and to recognize those who are living a life worthy of imitation.
Your child will excel academically.
Our goal is for each child to learn and grow to their fullest potential. Our small class sizes and dedicated teachers provide our students with the individualized support they need to succeed academically.
Your child will develop a service heart.
Students will develop a greater love for God and their community through serving. Whether it’s helping clean trays in the lunchroom, reading with a younger grade, or adopt a grandparent in our community - our students are developing a heart of cheerful giving and sacrificial love.
The JI Difference
Gospel Values, Academic Excellence, and Christian Service
Nurturing and developing a Christ-centered faith in children is at the heart of what we do.
By embracing Gospel values such as peace, justice, respect, and love, both students and staff strengthen their faith.
Every child possesses distinctive strengths, and our school is dedicated to aiding each student in realizing their utmost potential as a child of God.
Through our curriculum, daily prayers, and interactions with one another, students are encouraged to enhance their comprehension and affection for God and to cultivate an awareness of their distinctive role in serving God through service to others.
"Genuine + Energizing"
We chose JI because we wanted to help our daughter to find a close knit group of friends and to be surrounded by loving staff and teachers. Even though we are not Catholic, we chose JI because we felt that the love displayed for kids at this school was genuine and energizing. We see that she's been challenged in her own Christian faith and is supported in her moral development, which was really important to our family. We are grateful for JI and the blessing this school has been to our family.

"Family-Like Environment"
I love the smaller class sizes and how well teachers are able to get to know individual students' strengths, weaknesses and interests. I love how faith and prayer are integrated throughout the day and week. I love having the span of grades (preK-7th) in the same building where activities like the All-School Retreat and Field Day help form relationships, creating a family-like environment.

"Welcoming Community"
John Ireland Catholic School is a true gift to our family! I am a JI Alum, but my love and respect for the work done at the school wasn't fully developed until our first child entered kindergarten in 2012. The welcoming community made Lydia feel like she had an extended family - one that shared our focus on living with Christian values. Fast forward 10 years and we now have 2 kids who just graduated from JI and 3 currently attending. And it just keeps getting better and better! Besides getting a first -class education with high standards, the religion component continues to open the kids' eyes to Catholic beliefs, the Saints, living out the Gospel, and loving God as a friend. The school incorporates religion into everything by having weekly mass, adoration, prayer services and two All-School Retreats. These special retreats set their hearts on fire for Christ! The staff also goes above and beyond - teaching, loving our kids and the Lord. John Ireland, whether you're interested in the faith component or not, is a place to nurture, ignite passion for life, and give kids a first -class education!

"Immeasurable Love + Unwavering Support"
A couple of years ago, our family made the decision to transfer our children to John Ireland, and the love we've found there is immeasurable. It's not just a school; it's a sanctuary where our kids learn essential academic knowledge, and are taught core values in a community that feels like a second home. The genuine joy on our children's faces as they share their daily experiences is priceless, and their anticipation for the next day speaks volumes about the positive impact of this school The teachers and staff at John Ireland go above and beyond, working with our family to ensure our children's success. It's more than a school-- it's a place where our family thrives, thanks to the dedication and unwavering support of the remarkable educators at John Ireland.
