Saint Wendel Catholic School

Saint Wendel Catholic School has existed for more than 150 years, and the mission of the school has always been twofold: to provide a rigorous academic program for our students and to transmit the doctrine of the Catholic Faith to the new generation of the faithful. These two missions have been connected to our present vision statement which simply... is: We Learn, We Serve, and We Are Christlike. One of the highest tributes which a school can receive is for an outside organization to objectively examine a school and find praise. This happened in the spring of 2015 when an accreditation team from Advance Ed visited Saint Wendel School, examined its accreditation documents, and interviewed 50 school stakeholders (students, staff, parents, community members). The findings of the committee were positive, and Saint Wendel Catholic School was described as a "treasure in southern Indiana". Also, the Indiana Department of Education has ranked our school in its "A" category which shows that we work hard to insure continuous student achievement.Read More
