Our School Mission
Through our commitment to Catholic values and academic excellence, St. Louis School exists to educate lifelong learners who transform the world through intellect, love, justice and peace.
Welcome to St. Louis School
Our goal is to teach as Jesus taught. At St. Louis School we strive to develop the intellect of our students in an environment that nurtures creativity, a joy of learning, and Catholic values. The personal development of each child occurs in a faith-filled environment, leading each child toward self-esteem, responsibility, and accountability. Activities are offered to promote a positive self-concept for each child. In this way, students, parents, teachers, and administrators work through Christ to develop integrity, initiative, cooperation, Christian character, and self-direction. Learn more about our vibrant school community and become a member of the SLS family today!

Toy Drive
The Christmas season is upon us and SLS students are working to bring some joy to other children. Students from each grade conducted a toy drive for children who are served by the St. Vincent de Paul Society and by last Friday had filled up more than two van loads. The toy drive continues until Friday, December 7th and we welcome your donation of new, unwrapped toys via your child’s homeroom. Your generosity will help to brighten a child’s Christmas. #AOBServe
STEAM: Art Infuses STEM
We often look to geniuses for ideas and inspiration in our own lives. SLS 8th Grade students are examining the life and work of Leonardo Da Vinci through a STEAM activity. The students began designing and building complex machines in art and science classes using household materials, inspired by prototype machines found in Da Vinci’s famous notebooks. This cross-curricular STEAM project challenged the students to design a machine that would lift a mass of 20 to 50 grams 20+ centimeters and include at least 2 simple machines.
ST. NICK NIGHT
On Saturday evening, December 1st, we kicked off the Advent season with our annual St. Nick Night. The building was packed with our students and families as the parents caught up with each other while the children made gingerbread houses, took a cookie walk and visited with St. Nick. Thank you the many elves that helped out - our cookie bakers, gingerbread makers, tree decorators, poinsettia sellers...and the many volunteers who ran the various events, especially our event chairs, David and Vanessa Huff, and St. Nick and his angel who stepped in at the last minute to save the day.
Alumni Shine!
We are beyond proud of our graduates Ryan, Kate, and Lourdes (SLS Class of 2016) who were recently inducted into Our Lady of Good Counsel High School’s chapter of the National Honor Society. This achievement is a testament to their hard work, focus, service to others, and strength of character. Congratulations on this distinguished honor!Service Day
St. Louis School students recently participated in a time-honored SLS tradition – Student Council sponsored middle-school Service Day! Middle-school students began the day with Mass and then broke out into small “landscaping” crews across our parish to help clean, rake and beautify the residences of some of our older parishioners.
STEM Speaker Series
As part of the St. Louis School STEM Speaker Series, our Fifth Grade students recently took the opportunity to learn about 3D printing from Preston Tobery, Coordinator of Maker Technologies for the University of Maryland’s John and Stella Graves MakerSpace. Mr. Tobery shared details about his career, the technologies found at the Maker Space and his passion for 3D printing and design with the goal of making a difference in our world.St. Louis Celebrates Their 95th Anniversary!
