St. Monica Elementary School (Closed 2026)

12132 Olive Blvd
Saint Louis, MO 63141
More than any other program of education sponsored by the Church, the Catholic School has the opportunity and obligation to be unique, contemporary, and oriented to Christian service.
Unique because it is distinguished by its commitment to the threefold purposes of Christian education: message, community, service, and by its total design and operation which fosters the integration of religion with the rest of learning and living; contemporary because it enables students to address with Christian insight the multiple problems which face individuals and society today; oriented to Christian service because it helps students acquire skills, virtues, and habits of heart and mind required for effective service to others.
St. Monica School is the unique setting within which we, as a community, learn to worship God.
We dedicate ourselves to being unique, contemporary, and oriented to Christian service.
