Letter from the Principal

Greetings!

St. Jude Catholic elementary school is a vibrant and supportive community serving students in grades K-8. Our students come from all over the west side of Cincinnati and many families are in their 2nd or 3rd generation of students attending St. Jude. We are a parish school and a member of the Divine Mercy Family of Parishes. While our education and student programing is top notch, forming students in our Catholic faith is our mission. Our goal is to have our students encounter the love of Christ each and every day while in the halls and classrooms of St. Jude!

We truly partner with parents when educating students entrusted to our care. When working together, we can most effectively reinforce life-affirming values and character in our students. With a solid educational foundation, resilient character, and strong faith, St. Jude students thrive in high school and beyond. Our alumni do great things after their time at our school, which is a testament to the power of working with families to set students up for success.

I am blessed to work with some really talented and dedicated faculty and staff at St. Jude. Many of our staff have worked here for a long time and have sent their children to our school, shaping a family atmosphere that is felt throughout the building. This culture ensures that students feel supported and loved, which only strengthens our ability to educate the whole child in a really profound way. If you are considering joining our school and the Divine Mercy Family of Parishes, just ask around or contact us directly. We would love to meet with potential families. Although we are growing each and every year, we always welcome new students who want to witness the love of Christ and the transformative power of our Catholic faith!

In Christ,

Jason Huther
