St. Rose of Lima Catholic School in Schulenburg, Texas was founded in 1889 and is the only accredited Catholic school in Fayette County serving students from pre-kindergarten through eighth grade. Schulenburg is a rural Texas community located halfway between Houston and San Antonio, known for the painted Churches and kindhearted hard working people. St. Rose of Lima School’s mission is to be God’s Presence to the world, developing excellence through Jesus regardless of gender, ethnicity, or religious denomination.We at St. Rose of Lima Catholic School believe in the following: Students are unique individuals with varied needs. They develop at different rates and in different manners. They have a natural desire to learn. They need to involve themselves responsibly in the learning process. The whole person grows through a number of supports: the home, the Church, the school, and the community. Teaching and learning can best be accomplished in an environment of trust, honesty and mutual respect. It requires the interaction and involvement of students, staff, administration, parents, and community. Teachers and administrators provide meaningful learning experiences aimed at the development of each individual’s spiritual, moral, intellectual, social, cultural, and physical endowments.
