St. Edward School

210 W 4th St
Minneota, MN 56264
St. Edward School exists to educate students in an environment that blends learning with faith formation.
Along with the families and the Catholic Community, we strive to provide a strong academic curriculum, promote Catholic values, and encourage stewardship.
We anticipate a mature, knowledgeable person who is spiritual, respectful, and uses her God given talents toward a global citizenship.
Catholic education is the development of the intellectual, spiritual, moral, emotional and physical growth of the children.
A Catholic school staff in cooperation with the pastor and parents provide the foundation for proclaiming the Gospel message, celebrating the liturgy, developing a faith-filled community and living the Good News of Jesus through ministry and service to others.
We believe that a peaceful and happy environment promotes educational achievement.
Students are motivated in their individual learning with positive reinforcement and discipline.
We believe that teaching methods stimulate students to develop their God-given abilities, self-esteem and promote the understanding of Christian justice in the community and world.
