Shop to Support Seton Catholic School

Inspired by St. Elizabeth Ann Seton, we are committed to the educational mission of the Catholic Church, enabling our children to live and be educated on a daily basis in a spiritually nurturing and disciplined environment.  As we strive toward excellence, students will develop spiritually, academically, emotionally, socially, and physically, and our community of families will grow in holiness and faithfulness according to God's Word.

The school has been named after Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton who is the patron saint of Catholic education.  She was born  on August 28, 1774, in New York, and during her life began a Catholic school for girls in Baltimore, Maryland. On March 17, 1963, she was beatified and given the title "Blessed." On September 14, 1975, Pope Paul VI proclaimed her a saint--the first canonized American.

History

In 1995 it was determined that there was a great need and tremendous support for the establishment of a private, independent grade school in Hudson,  Ohio.  The numbers showed that an elementary school would be filled.  A dream became reality and culminated with the dedication and opening of Seton Catholic School on August 25, 1997.  Seton Catholic School operates as a state chartered, nonprofit educational institution.  While operating with approval of the Diocese of Cleveland, the school is independent of any parish.  Governance is provided through a duly elected Board of Directors.  The Board is comprised of members who have a commitment to the mission of the institution.  Board members serve three year rotating terms.  The board employs a Principal to whom they delegate the responsibility for the school's daily operation.  The Principal serves as an ex-officio member of the Board.  The Board retains ultimate responsibility for the management of the school.
