Responsibility, hard work, self respect and respect for others are the qualities for which we build a strong foundation. That foundation is nurtured in the positive atmosphere of St. Theodore Catholic School. Children are taught the value of not only an education, but of those important values that build a strong character. Bullying is not tolerated. All children are treated by both teachers and peers with dignity and respect. Classes are small; hence, individual attention is given. Success rates are truly astronomical. I believe out of the nine seniors in the 2015 graduating class from Albert Lea High School who attended St Theodore as young students, eight were on the A honor roll and one was on the B honor roll.

I believe in this day and age, when we have so many social media negatives and influences, we have got to do our best for each and every child. I strongly encourage parents to look, go visit, talk to the principal and the teachers and see what a positive place St. Theodore is for your children. You do not have to be Catholic to attend this school. It is a school like all others but due to the small classes, the individualization and foundation your child will receive is second to none.
