A small Catholic elementary school where faith meets hands-on learning in a tight-knit Maspeth community
Families who want a faith-based elementary education with strong academics and creative programs, need before/after school care, and are looking for an affordable private school option in a residential Queens neighborhood — particularly those who value a small, community feel over prestige or name recognition.
- STREAM Lab integrates religion with STEM and arts — unusual depth for an elementary school
- Performing Arts Players gives kids actual stage time, not just music class
- Before and After School Programs included — rare to see this explicitly offered
- Tuition under $7,000 makes it one of the more affordable private options in Queens
- 5-star parent reviews citing small class sizes and engaged teachers
- Catholic identity means religious instruction is part of the daily experience — families should be comfortable with faith-based education
- No published diversity data makes it harder to gauge the student body makeup
- Only serves through 5th grade — families will need to plan for middle school transition
- Maspeth is relatively residential and quiet; families wanting a more urban or transit-hub neighborhood may find it feels isolated
A Catholic elementary academy serving pre-K through 5th grade, rooted in parish tradition but forward-thinking in its academic approach. Small by design, with a stated commitment to treating each child as an individual.
Parent reviews for the school’s Brooklyn campus (same network) highlight a genuine family feel — parents describe teachers as dedicated and the atmosphere as welcoming rather than institutional. The school explicitly values diversity as part of its mission.
Maspeth is a residential, working-class-to-middle-class neighborhood in central Queens — quiet and suburban in feel, with single-family homes and small businesses along Grand Avenue. It’s convenient to the L and M trains, making it a practical commute for families spread across the borough or coming from Brooklyn.
The school sits on Grand Avenue, a commercial strip with some shops and transit options. Families driving will find street parking; those relying on public transit will need to factor in walk time to the nearest train.
