Academics
St. Catherine Labouré School offers an educational program that is both academically rigorous and spiritually formative. Rooted in Catholic values, we strive to integrate the Catholic faith into all aspects of school life, guiding our students toward moral development, intellectual growth, and compassionate leadership.
Our academic curriculum lays a strong foundation through instruction in core subjects, including Religion, Reading/Literature, English Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, and Spelling/Handwriting. Designed to prepare students for success in competitive high school programs, the curriculum emphasizes fundamental knowledge, essential skills, and strong work habits.
We align our instruction with the highest standards, adhering to Archdiocesan guidelines as well as California State Standards and Common Core State Standards. With a focus on project-based learning and spiritual formation, our students are well-prepared for future success at college preparatory high schools and four-year universities.
In addition to our core curriculum, students benefit from enriching classes in Spanish, Art, Technology, and Physical Education. iPads are integrated into daily classroom activities, while our technology lab introduces students to coding and practical digital tools. Physical Education promotes lifelong health and wellness, while Spanish and Art classes encourage creativity, communication, and collaboration.
Our commitment to innovation is further demonstrated through our annual Invention Convention, where students engage with local professionals in engineering, science, and academia. This hands-on event empowers students to apply STEM concepts through design thinking and problem-solving, while also fostering meaningful connections with the broader community. By partnering with industry experts, we bridge the classroom to the real world—highlighting the importance of collaboration, mentorship, and community engagement. Through programs like the Invention Convention, St. Catherine Labouré School cultivates a culture of innovation, faith, and academic excellence—preparing students to thrive as thoughtful, capable, and compassionate leaders of tomorrow.
