70% of students at Saint Patrick High School participate in at least one activity outside of the classroom. We believe that an important part of a student’s high school experience is participation in activities of personal interest and development. Extra-curricular activities provide a means through which students may pursue excellence and achieve distinction while developing a sense of community within the school.
Grounded by faith. Rooted in tradition. Strengthened by brotherhood.
