St. Andrew is home to students ranging from Nursery through 8th grade and also includes a Tiny Tot program. St. Andrew Avellino’s Catholic identity is lived daily by the faculty, staff, and students in order to prepare them for a positive spiritual life. Our students take pride in attending church on a weekly basis and reaching out to the community and providing community service. Our school offers a great education enabling each student to reach their highest potential. Recently all our eighth graders have been accepted to the Catholic high school of their choice and many were accepted to a specialized high school. The school not only shines academically, scoring top in Terra Nova and State testing but also boasts an excellent art and music program. The students can enjoy both music and art as a part of the daily curriculum or take part in one of the afterschool programs. The students are exposed to afterschool music ensembles such as chorus, percussion strings, piano, guitar and beginner or advanced band. Our art program hosts an exhibit annually where all are welcome to experience works of art done by students of all grades. Our full size gymnasium allows the students to enjoy a much needed Physical Education program, as well as offer a home to many team sports such as soccer, volleyball and basketball. Our enriched afterschool program includes Spanish classes and an enhanced Science program. Our faculty and staff along with our parents strive to make the school a safe and positive learning environment. Saint Andrew Avellino is a home away from home!
