Highest Potential

The school offers the best possible education enabling each student to reach his or her highest potential. Recently all of our eighth graders have been accepted to the Catholic high school of their choice and many were accepted to a specialized high school.

Music and Art

St. Andrew Avellino 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.

Afterschool Programs

The students are exposed to afterschool music ensembles such as chorus, percussion strings, piano, guitar and beginner or advanced band. The art program hosts an exhibit annually where all are welcome to experience works of art done by students of all grades.

The enriched afterschool program includes Spanish classes and an enhanced science program. The faculty and staff along with parents strive to make the school a safe and positive learning environment.
