Franciscans Help to Educate Children in Louisville

Louisville, Kentucky

Parenthood is a role we fill our entire lives. Part of this role is the preparation of our children for the future. We have no control over how our children’s lives will turn out, but a high quality education in academic, spiritual, and physical matters will provide them the necessary tools to deal with life’s adventures.

St. Paul School involves the entire family in the education of its students

Families living in Louisville, Kentucky and surrounding areas have St. Paul (elementary) School as an education resource for their children. A Franciscan institution, the school provides the highest caliber of Catholic learning. According to St. Paul’s website, the whole school community is “Christ-centered”. Weekly masses, liturgies, and daily religious instruction provide for a vibrant and faithful student body.

St. Paul School’s curriculum encourages students’ curiosity. Graduates leaving for high school are intellectually inquisitive and ready to learn for the rest of their lives. Having learned from a curriculum prepared by their diocese, they have been exposed to knowledge that will allow them to settle into high school and eventually college with greater ease.

St. Paul School emphasizes the importance of faith in one's life

The presence of the Franciscans is an important factor in St. Paul School’s approach to the idea of education. Franciscans - as has been pointed out on this website - represent a centuries-old tradition of learning. Their ministries always involve work to improve their surrounding communities. The ministry of educating our children will ensure that our communities thrive for years to come.
