About St. Athanasius School
St. Athanasius School exists for the purpose of spreading the Good News of Christ according to Catholic teaching. Our acceptance of children from other religions, with the hope of evangelization , is an aspect of our Catholicity. We emphasize Catholic Christian formation that cannot be developed in public schools.

Our school’s mission is to bring the Good News of salvation to our students and families by teaching as Jesus did and instilling Catholic Christian values in our students. The school is an extension of the Church, a place where young people experience its teachings and traditions. They are encouraged to embrace a life of faith through prayer, liturgy, and example.
Our children and their parents/guardians understand that we teach Catholic doctrine and foster Catholic Christian values. They agree to this when they register their children in our school. The religious message is lived out each day in the way we show respect to one another, in our warm welcoming of visitors, in our prayers, and in our efforts to live as Christ’s disciples
The members of Saint Athanasius School show a genuine spirit of caring. They offer support and show sincere respect for one another. Our community life extends to the entire faith community and to the neighborhoods of Germantown and West Oak Lane. Through prayer and food collections, we reach out to neighbors in need.
