PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE
Dear Parents,

Welcome to the 2021-2022 school year! As Principal of St. George Catholic School, I am honored to serve you, the parents, and work in collaboration with the staff to provide your child(ren) with an excellent educational program. The staff at St. George remains focused on fulfilling the St. George Mission by providing a strong academic, social/emotional, physical, and spiritual program within a loving and safe environment. I ask that you join us in fulfilling this mission by supporting our staff and school so we can provide as many students as possible with in-person instruction so they can grow and develop in all these areas. I recognize that there are many concerns about the future, but at St. George, we are prepared and committed to our mission and goals. 

MISSION: St. George Catholic School is a Christ-centered, family-oriented community, with a history and tradition of excellence. Gospel values are integrated with academics within a progressive curriculum, promoting faith development through liturgy, prayer, and service.

Mrs. Fontenot
Principal
