A message from Kris Hoffay
Our school is truly an extraordinary place of learning. Our talented staff provides each student with a rigorous, personalized education plan, based on high academic and behavioral expectations.
I invite you to come see what makes our community different. Every family who reaches out speaks with someone who knows the school personally — because we do. We would be honored to welcome you.
State-certified teachers who know your child.
All of our elementary teachers are state certified and undergo continuous professional development, ensuring our lesson plans and curriculum meet and exceed the standards established for the public school system.

St. Jude the Apostle School is a parish school of St. Jude the Apostle Church in the Diocese of Albany. Prayer, Mass, sacramental preparation, and Catholic teaching are woven into the fabric of every school day.
We welcome families of all faiths who value what an authentic Catholic education offers: reverence for the dignity of every child, formation in virtue, and a life anchored in Christ.
Where families lead alongside the school.
The Parent Community Association (PCA) is the heart of our extended school family. Parents lead events, fundraisers, and volunteer efforts that make St. Jude feel like home.
At St. Jude the Apostle School, we know that parents and teachers working together is the best way to educate children.
Guided by a dedicated volunteer board.
Our School Board partners with the pastor, principal, and diocese to steward the mission, finances, and future of St. Jude the Apostle School. Board members serve as volunteers on behalf of every family we serve.
