A Message From Our Principal Dr. Melody Belcher
Dear St. Kieran Families and Prospective New Families,
As we begin the 2026–27 enrollment process for the coming year, our team is joyfully preparing for an exciting year ahead. I am pleased to announce that St. Kieran Catholic School will be accepting applications for the 2026–2027 school year in January 2026, with limited openings based on grade availability.
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 65 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 visit the school inquiry section on our 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.
“Thank you All for your hard work in teaching our son this year. He has grown and learned so much this year because of you. We greatly appreciate all that you have done for him this year and each year that you have been on his journey. Thank you for making it special!”
“At St. Kieran, I get to learn a lot about God. It is a great school with great coaches too.”
“I like St. Kieran because everyone is kind and I love my teacher.”
“I like St. Kieran because it is fun and interesting because I like math, and we learn about the Lord.”
“Our family recently joined St. Kieran and we could not be more pleased with the growth we have seen in our children. Not only are they being challenged academically, but they are thriving in their faith as well and we are so thankful for the change in focus St. Kieran has brought to our family.”
“I love St. Kieran because it is a beautiful community where everyone treats you like their own child.”
