Here, we share the heartbeat of St. Victor School—news, events, and reflections from our classrooms and community. Each post offers a glimpse of how we form students as faith-filled individuals, lifelong learners, and caring citizens.
During the Season of Joy, St. Victor School celebrates Advent through creativity, gratitude, and community. From student-decorated Christmas in the Park trees to an evening of carols, Las Posadas, and cherished traditions, students learn to share their gifts, practice kindness, and reflect on what truly matters. These moments reveal how faith, joy, and community come together to nurture children with purpose and care.
Belonging is at the heart of St. Victor School. From strong academics—where 85% of students meet or exceed state standards—to collaborative classrooms, cherished traditions, and a community rooted in faith, every child is known, supported, and inspired to grow. Belonging here means your child is welcomed as they are and nurtured as they become their best self.
St. Victor School, middle school teacher Mr. Contreras brings abstract learning to life through hands-on, faith-based projects that inspire critical thinking and creativity. From Revolutionary War posters to monk-life simulations, students learn to connect ideas, apply knowledge, and grow as lifelong learners in a Catholic school community.
At St. Victor School in San Jose’s Berryessa neighborhood, students discover creativity and confidence through our Electives Program. From drawing and choir to makers’ space, chess, and video editing, each class helps students explore passions beyond the textbook. By balancing strong academics with joy and hands-on learning, we shape well-rounded, lifelong learners who are ready to lead with curiosity and heart.
