THE SAINT CATHERINE OF SIENA DIFFERENCE

St. Catherine of Siena School is dedicated to providing a nurturing and faith-filled environment where every child is valued and inspired to reach their full potential. Guided by the National Standards and Benchmarks for Effective Catholic Schools, our faculty and staff focus on developing the whole child—spiritually, academically, socially, and emotionally—within a supportive and close-knit community. Families from Trumbull, Shelton, Stratford, and surrounding areas are invited to explore our campus, meet our community, and experience firsthand the impact of a St. Catherine of Siena School education.

MISSION & CATHOLIC IDENTITY – Our school integrates faith into every aspect of student life. Through daily prayer, sacramental preparation, religious study, and practicing Catholic virtues, students grow spiritually and learn to live with compassion, integrity, and service to others.

ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE – SCSS provides a rigorous and comprehensive curriculum that prepares students for lifelong learning and success. Recognized as a National Blue Ribbon School of Excellence, we offer core academics alongside Spanish, technology, music, art, and physical education. Enrichment and extracurricular opportunities allow students to explore their interests and talents while developing critical thinking, creativity, and a love of learning.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT & PARTNERSHIPS – Our school fosters a close-knit, welcoming community where students are known and supported. Faculty, staff, and families work together to cultivate a sense of belonging, collaboration, and shared responsibility. Active parent involvement strengthens our school’s mission and enhances student growth and achievement.

LEADERSHIP & CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT – Our administration and faculty are committed to ongoing professional growth and the continual improvement of school programs. Through thoughtful leadership, strategic planning, and reflective practices, we ensure that our school remains responsive, effective, and faithful to its mission.
