Each year Catholic schools across the diocese open wide their doors to welcome over 3600 students. We know families have many options when considering a child's education. We are honored that you are interested in or have chosen Catholic education in the Diocese of Stockton.
When I think about what makes Catholic education a priceless opportunity for our youth, the word that quickly comes to mind is commitment. Catholic schools in America came into existence solely because Catholics had a deep commitment not only to educate children but to form them in the likeness of Jesus Christ. Although Catholic schools may look and operate differently than in those early days, that same commitment exists and continues to define our mission and drive our schools forward today. As Catholic communities we are called not only to academic excellence, we are called "to proclaim the Gospel, to build community, and to serve our brothers and sisters."
