St. Michael Catholic School supports parents in the education of the whole child by instilling Catholic teachings, nourishing faith in Jesus Christ, and strengthening individual commitment to holiness and academic excellence.
Believing that Christ is the heart of our educational enterprise, we begin each week by gathering together to worship God, welcome one another and celebrate our accomplishments.
And we end each week with a school Mass. This spiritual foundation sets the stage for greater learning and helps our students grow, religiously, intellectually, and morally.
Fully accredited by the Minnesota Non-Public Schools Association, our school offers a curriculum that emphasizes academics, fosters a love of learning and brings out the best in each student.
