A Message From Our Principal Dr. Melody Belcher

Dear St. Kieran Families and Prospective New Families,

Welcome to our mighty Catholic school website. Here you will find a wealth of information about our school, events, learning, and extracurricular opportunities. We invite you to explore our Facebook and Instagram pages to experience the vibrant life of our school community—and to see for yourself why families across East County call St. Kieran a true hidden jewel. This year, we proudly celebrate 66 years of educating children spiritually, academically, and morally. Six and a half decades of tradition, excellence, and faith have shaped who we are today.

To learn more, please continue reading and visit the school inquiry section on this website for information about our inquiry process and grade-level availability. We also warmly welcome your family to schedule a personalized tour of our peaceful, scenic campus at the top of Olive Hills. St. Kieran is fully accredited by both the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) and the Western Catholic Educational Association (WCEA)—a testament to our long-standing commitment to excellence.

At St. Kieran Catholic School, faith formation is an integral part of who we are and everything we do. Our Catholic identity is not simply a subject we teach; it is the foundation upon which we build our school community, guide our students, and nurture a lifelong relationship with Jesus Christ. Our pastor, Fr. Ben, along with our devoted parish community, plays an integral role in nurturing the spiritual development of every child.
