Holy Spirit School was established in 1956
under the direction of Rev. Thomas Murphy, the first pastor of the parish.
The Sisters of the Holy Faith have staffed the school since its establishment.
Presently, it is staffed by two sisters and eighteen lay teachers.
The school was built to accommodate eight
grades and a library. Initially there were four grades, then each
succeeding year another grade was added until the full complement of eight was
established. In 1988, a Kindergarten and Extended Care Program were added.
A Computer Lab was built in 1991 and a Science Lab in 1994.
Throughout its fifty-two year history,
Holy Spirit School has adapted and enriched its total education program to meet
the changing needs and demands of its population. Enrollment has remained
constant. The families served by Holy Spirit School are representative of the
socio-economic diversity of the parish and community. The strong bond
between the school and the parish is reinforced by the fact that 84% of the
families are Holy Spirit parishioners and 95% of the students are Catholic.
