A faith-based education for the 21st Century, preparing today's children to be tomorrow's servant leaders.
ST. LOUISE PARISH SCHOOL
2023 - 2024
Dear St. Louise School Community,
We are truly blessed at St Louise Parish School to have such amazing teachers, supportive parents, and well-mannered students We remain committed to meeting the academic, social, emotional, and spiritual needs of every child who is entrusted into our care We take this responsibility seriously and are always searching for ways to enhance our programming So, we are excited to announce the implementation of a new program at St Louise beginning in September 2025: STREAM (STEM + Religion + the Arts) This cross-curricular and project-based approach to teaching & learning will add another layer to our already rich curriculum, while further strengthening the 4-C's of 21st-century learning for our students: communication, collaboration, critical thinking, and creativity. These are exciting times at St. Louise!
But the implementation of new programming will not change our core mission of fostering Roman Catholic faith and values. We are, first and foremost, a Catholic school, dedicated to providing our students with a learning environment that reflects the teachings of Jesus Christ, emphasizing the importance of respect, compassion, service, and a commitment to the common good. We aim to not only graduate students who excel academically, but students who are truly servant leaders.
For more than six decades, St. Louise Parish School has served Bellevue and the surrounding communities with distinction. In the years ahead, our goal is simple: to maintain our strong Catholic identity while ensuring that our school is considered the top choice for academic excellence. But we're confident that our new STREAM program will also enhance our reputation as a school that values innovation. Education is changing quickly, and schools must adapt to ensure that students are well-prepared for the realities of our global community. Memorizing one's math facts is important. But being able to use those math facts to solve problems is just as important, if not more. Similarly, researching a particular topic is important. But thinking critically about the information that has been gathered is just as important, if not more. In short, the best schools are those who are able to achieve a balance between knowledge-based instruction and skills-based instruction. And Catholic schools have the added advantage of being able to provide the third leg of the triad of learning: faith-based instruction.
Thank you to our entire community for supporting our efforts to provide such an amazing program for our students. The future is bright for St. Louise Parish School.
John Black Principal

Annual Fund
The St Louise Annual Fund helps us bridge the difference between the actual cost of educating a student at St Louise, and the tuition we charge We work to keep tuition at a more affordable level to make educating a child at St Louise a reality for families who would not have the ability to pay the actual cost These dollars support curriculum, technology investments, unfunded tuition assistance, student enrichment, teacher salaries and operating costs
Your support of the Annual Fund makes a true difference in the lives of our students
Fr. Phil Wallace Tuition Assistance Fund
Thanks to your generous donations year after year, the Fr. Phil Wallace Tuition Assistance Fund has grown to more than $2.7 million. Every donation over these past 22 years has made a significant difference in the lives of our students.
Last year, the Fund generated $140,000 in interest income - which was exclusively allocated to need-based scholarships. We observed an increase in the number of people seeking financial aid, with a greater need than ever before.
When you make a gift today, you'll give a child access to a life-changing, Catholic education.
