Now in our 171st year, St. Brigid is the longest continuously operating Catholic school in the Dayton region. Often called this region\u2019s \u201chidden gem,\u201d our school nourishes the faith, minds, and hearts of 278 students \u2013 from preschool to eighth grade. Enrollment is at its highest level in more than three decades. Families are encouraged to inquire early.<\/p>\n<p>Our low student-to-teacher ratio allows our passionate and experienced educators, who average 23 years of teaching experience, to know and support each child while building strong partnerships with parents. We believe parents are the primary educators and catechists of their children, and we work closely with families to support each child&#8217;s academic and spiritual growth. Within our virtues based culture, virtuous habits and personal responsibility are intentionally practiced and celebrated each day.<\/p>\n<p>St. Brigid is a warm and welcoming school filled with joyful students and staff. We are a private Catholic school with a predominantly Catholic student body and a strong Catholic identity. We also warmly welcome families of all faiths and work diligently to make a St. Brigid education accessible to families regardless of income.<\/p>\n<p>We are blessed that our students consistently score above local, state, and national averages in reading and mathematics. Since Ohio established the Third Grade Reading Guarantee in 2012, St. Brigid students have maintained a 100% passing rate. We are also proud to be a Purple Star school and warmly welcome military families into a community where they will feel supported and at home.<\/p>\n<p>Our close-knit family of students, educators, and parents invites you to explore our website, contact us with questions, and schedule a visit. We think you will be glad you did!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/stbrigidxenia.org\/school\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/01\/Notice-of-Nondiscrimination-Policy.pdf\"><strong>Non-discrimination and Admission Policy<\/strong><\/a><\/h4>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1487645485708{margin-bottom: 100px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1487645301859{margin-top: 75px !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: center\">Mission<\/h1>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=&#8221;normal&#8221; color=&#8221;#f8d401&#8243; thickness=&#8221;3&#8243; up=&#8221;15&#8243; down=&#8221;15&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">St. Brigid School, a faith-filled community, is a place where, in collaboration with families, Gospel values are shared and modeled so that the Catholic heritage and tradition continue to flourish in the community and all students are challenged to achieve their highest potential.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1487645354083{margin-top: 75px !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: center\">Vision<\/h1>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=&#8221;normal&#8221; color=&#8221;#f8d401&#8243; thickness=&#8221;3&#8243; up=&#8221;15&#8243; down=&#8221;15&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">St. Brigid is a school that calls forth and supports the discipleship of Jesus in all its dimensions.\u00a0 Everyone involved comes to think and to act like Jesus.\u00a0 The emerging kingdom of God is evident so that people are drawn into this vision.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1487645485708{margin-bottom: 100px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1790727271252{margin-top: 75px !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: center\">Pledge<\/h1>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=&#8221;normal&#8221; color=&#8221;#f8d401&#8243; thickness=&#8221;3&#8243; up=&#8221;15&#8243; down=&#8221;15&#8243;][vc_column_text]I am a student at St. Brigid School.<br \/>\nAs disciples of Christ I pledge to do my best in<br \/>\neverything I do today.<\/p>\n<p>I will come to school prepared to learn.<\/p>\n<p>I will listen and follow directions.<\/p>\n<p>I will obey the rules of my class, my school and the gospel.<\/p>\n<p>I will treat others with respect and kindness at all times.<\/p>\n<p>I will be responsible for what I say and do .<br \/>\nTogether we follow Jesus and be the best we can be today.<\/p>\n<h1>Go Irish!<\/h1>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1790727065576{margin-top: 75px !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: center\">Parish Vision Statement<\/h1>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=&#8221;normal&#8221; color=&#8221;#f8d401&#8243; thickness=&#8221;3&#8243; up=&#8221;15&#8243; down=&#8221;15&#8243;][vc_column_text]St. Michael the Archangel Family of Parishes aspires to cooperate through grace to form disciples of Jesus Christ who desire to be saints.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_separator type=&#8221;normal&#8221; color=&#8221;#f9e722&#8243; thickness=&#8221;3&#8243; up=&#8221;15&#8243; down=&#8221;15&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; angled_section=&#8221;no&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; background_image_as_pattern=&#8221;without_pattern&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1485849197352{margin-top: 50px !important;margin-bottom: 100px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_column_text] Welcome Families!
