Welcome

On behalf of our dedicated faculty and staff, we welcome you and are pleased that you are considering becoming a member of our St. Monica Catholic School family.  We are an educational institution who serves students in Early Childhood through eighth grade.

As a member of our school family, you will quickly come to see that we have both a very dedicated faculty and staff as well as a strong parent volunteer group, who work together to support each other in the common mission of our Catholic school:


The "M.O.R.E." Factor: We are Mission Ordered towards Reaching Eternal Life

“In the spirit of Saint John Paul II’s call for a New Evangelization, Catholic Schools of the Diocese of Kalamazoo desire to respond to this transformative invitation to holiness with a firm and renewed zeal. As a multi-culturally diverse institution, we joyfully embrace the universal vocation to holiness. We are a community centered in the Eucharist and an educational system of the highest standards, rooted in our Catholic faith. Our goal is to equip students with an excellent education and a solid faith formation so each student may know the faith confidently, live the faith in a community where families and teachers work together to advocate for each other's salvation and Sainthood, and share the faith with relevance and loving courage throughout their lives.”
– Fr. John Fleckenstein

As parents within our school family, you are recognized as the first educators of your child.  St. Monica Catholic School exists for the sole purpose of assisting parents with this great responsibility, to form students' minds and hearts in Christ.

The faculty and staff at St. Monica's joyfully accept the mission to form students of character, in wisdom, knowledge, and virtue. We recognize the importance of educating students in the Truth, Beauty and Goodness of our Catholic faith and traditions, thereby offering an exemplary academic program whose foundation is rooted most deeply in our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. 

It is our fervent prayer that together, we will strengthen the Church with souls who are determined to proclaim and live the Gospel message to the world and for all eternity. 

Your Humble Servant in Christ,

Jordon T. Beery, M.A. 
Principal & St. Monica Parent
