About Us

St. Pat’s has a long tradition of providing a formative education to children in North Tacoma. What was started by the Tacoma Dominican Sisters in 1893 is now a pre-kindergarten through 8th grade community (primary through middle school) staffed by committed teachers with specialties in literacy, music, art and physical education as well as Spanish and technology. St. Pat’s has maintained the original mission of the Dominican Sisters — to provide a quality Catholic education in order to nourish the faith life of our students.
