St. Jude's is unlike any other school.

                                             St. Jude's is individualized, structured and teacher directed, emphasizing the development of
                                             personal strengths and acquisition of a life-long work ethic.
Intelligent students who need to be
                                            taught how to achieve to their potential; bright students with learning disabilities who need to learn
                                     how to learn; and ESL students who want to develop their English literacy, come to St. Jude's
                                     
because of its long and successful history of helping. Students attend to build, strengthen and
                                           consolidate the needed foundation of academic skills in classes of six to eight students. Once the
                                  essential skills of reading, writing and arithmetic have been acquired and a strong work ethic
                                         established, our students return to the system better able to achieve than ever before. Over the last
                  three decades, hundreds of students, as a result of St. Jude’s help, have graduated from college and university.


St. Jude's School
