At St. Alexander, our goal is to provide an excellent faith-based education while making students aware of their important roles as Christians – to support and serve God, each other, their school , and our parish. We strive to keep our curriculum challenging for all students, yet our small class sizes allow for added individual attention when needed. Our students leave St. Alexander well prepared academically for high school and spiritually for life.
St. Alexander has an 85 year legacy of excellence providing quality education to the children of Villa Park and surrounding communities. We are proud of our rich history and poised for future success. We invite you to visit our school and consider becoming a part of the St. Alexander Catholic School family.
