St. Patrick Elementary School

Serving Catholic Education Since 1907

 St. Patrick School is an elementary school of approximately 211 students, of diverse social and ethnic backgrounds, from Junior Kindergarten to Grade 8.  The surrounding community consists of single family homes situated in a geographic area that is semi-rural, located between Brampton and Bolton in the community of Wildfield. Our student population over the past few years has seen a significant increase in English as a Second Students (ESL).

For almost 100 years, St. Patrick School has been a beacon for Catholic Education in the area. Catholic Education, rooted in Christ, is called to a unique way of seeing and interacting with our world.  Through the examples of our master teacher, Christ, we take our calling to “reach out into the deep” and “be community” for others seriously. Our Catholic view of academics, spiritual and moral development, sacramental preparation, prayer, discipline, and community, challenge us to use our learning for the benefit of others.  We are called to be Christ for others.

At St. Patrick School our commitment to academic excellence is a shared responsibility.   As a Staff and School Council, we work hard bringing together students, parents, teachers, pastoral team, trustees and other partners to form a Catholic community in the service of the spiritual, intellectual, physical and emotional needs of students in our care. 

Our students come to us with a variety of strengths and needs, with their Catholic faith as their common bond.  Our prayer life, liturgical celebrations, the sacraments, and our faith and values system form the foundation of our school program. The curriculum is broad, balanced and relevant to the needs and aspirations of all our students.  A wide range of subjects and learning experiences are offered to develop the skills, abilities and talents of individual students.  Accordingly, appropriate assessment procedures are employed regularly to motivate and encourage student success.  To ensure coherence and wholeness, subjects are taught within the context of The Ontario Curriculum, the Gospel values of Jesus Christ and sound educational practices.
