School Notes

St. Edward School, as an integral part of St. Edward Parish and administered by the community of the Dominican Sisters of Mission San Jose, is committed to all students by providing a quality education founded in the principles of the Catholic faith.
In partnership with parents, parish and the wider community we motivate each individual to achieve their full potential and become productive contributors to the society of the 21st century.
