Students need to bring a lunch every day to school. However, school offers pizza day every Friday for an additional fee. They generally eat lunch in the Family Life Center (gym) or (weather permitting) in the outdoor lunch area. Families are invited to join students at lunch time as well as for Star breakfasts (held on a scheduled basis).
All of our teachers are experienced, degreed and qualified. We are fully accredited through the Texas Catholic Conference Education Department (TCCEA), which is recognized by the Texas Educational Agency (TEA). We are under the supervision of the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston Catholic School Office. Our Interim Superintendent is Debra Haney, our Principal is Dr. Al Varisco, and our Pastor is Father Vincent Nguyen.
Here at St. Clare School we pride ourselves on the many supplementary activities we provide for the students and their families. These activities not only promote unity within the school, but encourage the cohesiveness of the St. Clare Community as a whole. In order to continue with these activities, fundraising is a necessity. The Star Annual Fund is the foundation of our fundraising efforts at St. Clare of Assisi Catholic School, allowing us to fulfill our mission to challenge students Spiritually, academically, socially and emotionally. Like many Catholic Schools, St. Clare relies on annual tax-deductible gifts, in addition to tuition, the balance the budget each year and continue to provide enhanced educational opportunities and facilities for students. The Star Annual Fund proceeds provide St. Clare with the financial flexibility to make investments throughout the year that would not be possible through tuition revenue only.
