Welcome from the Principal

elcome to our St. Louis Catholic School family!
We are thrilled to extend a warm and heartfelt invitation to all of you as we embark on another exciting school year filled with faith, learning, and growth. St. Louis Catholic School is not just a place of education; it's a place where faith, values, and knowledge come together to nurture young minds and spirits. We believe that every child is a unique gift from God, and our mission is to guide and support each student on their educational and spiritual journey.
As a parishioner of St. Louis for 29 years and an educator for 26 years, I am honored to serve as a leader of the school. St. Louis Catholic School is a home away from home. In our classrooms, you'll find dedicated teachers who are not just educators but mentors and role models. They are committed to providing a safe, nurturing, and inspiring environment where our students can thrive academically and grow in their understanding of their faith. As a team, we partner with parents, who are their child’s first educators. Together, with our Pastor, Fr. O’Hare, and our Parochial Vicar, Fr. Thompson, we seek to provide the highest level of instruction, grounding students as servants of Christ and setting each child on a path of success.
We take great pride in being a Virginia Distinguished Purple Star School. St. Louis Catholic School welcomes and supports our military students and families from Fort Belvoir, Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling, the Pentagon, Fort Myers, the U.S. Coast Guard Station, and other military facilities throughout the Washington, D.C. area. Our school is more than just a place of learning; it's a second home for our students and their families. We invite you to engage with our vibrant school community, participate in our events, and join us in our faith journey. Together, we will create cherished memories and form lasting friendships. As parents and guardians, your involvement and support are invaluable to us. We encourage open communication and collaboration between home and school, as we believe that a strong partnership between us is essential.
Thank you for choosing St. Louis Catholic School as your educational and spiritual home. We look forward to another fantastic year of growth, achievement, and faith formation. We are excited to share this journey together as we inspire, educate, and celebrate each of your children.
Warmest regards,
Mimi Calogero, Principal
