About RSPS
Resurrection-St. Paul School is a fully accredited, Catholic interparish school, grades Pre-K (3 & 4 year old) through grade eight, serving the parish communities of the Church of the Resurrection and St. Paul’s Church in Ellicott City, Maryland. Resurrection-St. Paul School is dedicated to excellence in education in light of the teachings of Jesus Christ through the Catholic Church. At the core of the school is a strong, Christ-centered, close-knit faith community where pastors, parish councils, school board, parents, faculty and students work together to attain common goals. The school celebrates the uniqueness and dignity of each student and encourages every child to discover and develop their special talents, sense of self-appreciation, decision making skills, and personal values guided by our Catholic Christian traditions. Each student is thus enabled to witness to his or her faith, to reach out to others in love and compassion, and to work toward solutions of human problems.
Resurrection-St. Paul School seeks to develop within each student a curiosity, love of, and responsibility for learning. Through a strong academic program, student learning is facilitated from its most fundamental stages to the complex level of mature, intellectual thinking where students analyze, synthesize, and critique subject matter of increased difficulty. The school’s educational process promotes the development of the total person by encouraging spiritual, intellectual, physical, social and emotional growth.
This unique approach prepares our students to assume responsible, creative roles in an ever challenging and changing world, with the realization that Christ continues his work through them, empowering each of them to become committed and fully functioning members of the Catholic Church and the world of the 21st century.
